Hey Heavy... thanks for the kind words. I've been GALing, almost too much. Yesterday I had an empty and lonely day till evening when I came to visit my mom. Today, I have three invitations to be social and I have accepted them all.

I'm suddenly very anxious about where I'm going to live, though. I am working on a plan to acquire land and build a very small home, but that won't be accomplished in a month and a half... which is when she wants us both out of the house. It's a whole new source of anxiety for me, on top of starting a new job next week, the boys having moved out... just almost too much change and loss to bear. The depression is real, and it's hard to see much hope.

But I'll get out of bed here in a minute, go to church, and see if I can't put some of this pain in God's hands.
