Maybell XXXV: Almost There

[Maybell]

Thank you, Bob, that's very kind of you.

I did call my mom yesterday and my dad answered. It turned out to be, surprisingly, kind, generous, supportive, and interested.

Then my mom got on the phone and it was all about her. And brief, and she was short with me.

Which is fine. It's at least more honest and I didn't get sucked into a lot of my own negativity.

They are not coming this time which is a relief. Things on the legal front have turned in an unpredictable direction and I think I won't have the energy to do a lot of outside coddling. It's going to be hunker down time soon.

I know I've gotten a bit sporadic around here. I see a fresh crop of stories and I'm sorry. I want to mentor some people through but my plate is full at the moment so I'm sending warm healing vibes across the boards. Thanks for the kind thoughts.
