OK, so it seems acceptance just became another spot in cycling... but at least it's part of the rotation now. I'm guessing as time goes on, there'll be more days of acceptance and less of the depression, sadness, anger....? For example, yesterday and today I am sad and wish I could just hold him in my arms to comfort him. I had a few hours of depression, but it's mostly just been a general sadness about how lost he is. For me the difference between sadness and depression is the ability to function... sadness is that surface feeling as you go about your day, but your brain isn't murky. Depression is laying in bed all day, obsessively thinking about it all.

Made some half decent goods with Audrey, made pancakes a few days in a row and they got better each time. Working on a buttermilk honey biscuit recipe, but for health reasons they're full multigrain. Have to tweak a few more things, but I think I'm almost there! The boys and I did some more gardening today... nice days for it between rain, now that we're in autumn.
