If you go to facebook, on my timeline or on Khrystine's page,  she posted a picture of our apartment and how we're doing.   We're doing fine.  It's just a  turned upside down mess., that's all.  It doesn't even smell bad and the carpet has been dry for days.   I suppose it's just the surprise of it all and the inexperience of what happens next or what do I do now?.  You know, you just think the universe has hit a big bump in the road.  There are other things to worry about.  

Ben posted today that Peter broke his arm. That's much worse.  Ben doesn't say how or anything.   Peter doesn't look like he's in pain or shock so I'm assuming he's pretty much okay.  Poor kid.   Poor parents....they're the ones who are probably in shock.  None of my kids have broken any bones so I don't know what it's all about.    James broke his elbow when he was in junior high school.  And he had surgeries on it, but I'm the grandma so I played second fiddle to the caregiving.

A current disappointment is that none of us will  be able to go to James's wedding next weekend.  Our car just isn't reliable enough to drive  like that.
We all really wanted to be there.  They are having a Wedding on the Beach in San Diego.   How beautiful....how Romantic.  I wish we could see it.

I think everything else is okay.  We are learning to take one day at a time and not to ask the impossible of ourselves. Life goes on fairly easily after all.  

This Blessing and Picture appeared on my facebook one day.  I really like it but I don't know where it came from.  It's my wish for James and Jocelyn and all of you.
