a young man with hope II

[lnlyshp]

9 days MIA.... How are you? Hope all is going well.

Hey mahhhty. I'm doing okay. I think I'm moving to the depression stage of grief. I just haven't had the will to get out there and GAL like I did when she first left. The weather hasn't helped either - snow has been really coming down lately and the roads have been terrible. I've just been burying myself in my classwork and taking care of my son when he is with me.

Tomorrow is the Initial Status Conference. I've been thinking a lot about hope and how, like you explained, it is mine to give up if and when I choose. My concern is that I'm just fooling myself or that I'm in some sort of denial. Feel like she has been very kind to me lately, though - perhaps just her way of being understanding.

Thanks for checking in, friend.
