Feeling a little down today. Woke up this morning and it seemed like the right time to finally remove my wedding ring. I guess it's part of the final rope drop as it sits in the spare change dish on my dresser.
I'm also reflecting today on my convo with the Schwan's man. Of all people, right? I took Friday off from work and the Schwan's man stopped by. We really had a good talk for about 30 minutes. He brought up some really good points about being up front and honest with people. He was applying it to his interaction with customers, but it is a good policy for M too that W and I failed and continue to fail terribly at.
Some more factoids...
FIL is finally going to a nursing home in December.
My mom is having her knee replaced today so the kids and I will go visit her this evening at the hospital. Last night (as she was fighting off some tears) W said she would come to town to visit my mom today.
Later I'll post a picker-upper list of "good things" to think about like flaneur suggested on bigAl's thread.
