Thoughts 2 weeks + 1

It is so outrageously hot!  I would love to get outside and take a walk but not going to happen.

It has been a very pleasant morning.  I laid in bed until 8am…(my girls are typically up by 6:30 ish).  Had a leisurely cup of coffee and quietly sitting back on my bed typing this.  I did talk to the girls who are having a wonderful time with their aunt.  I am also having a wonderful time all alone.  Is that bad?  I feel kind of guilty but it is true.  Today the Disney channel will not be on my TV but instead will be replaced by the True Blood episodes I am behind on. Don’t get me wrong, I love Disney as a matter of fact booked the rest of our Disney trip reservations on Sunday. Too many Phineas and Ferb episodes starts to make me crazy.

There is one thing that I did not expect to learn through this experience and that is who will really be there for you when needed.  There are people who I expected to be “there” but I have not even heard from..not a call, text, e-mail, note on Facebook, card or even owl (Harry Potter reference for those into Harry).  Then on the other side we have had people who have gone above and beyond anything I ever could have expected. I don’t want this to sound wrong, I mean I am not a materialistic person.  A card or simple text shows someone is thinking about you and cares. When everything on you body hurts, it helps just to know that someone cares.  I was having a bad day one day and a box arrived with the cutest little mini yellow rose bush…totally changed my day!  Food dropped off from wonderful people have allowed my overstretched husband to be able to focus on myself and the girls.  The many cards and thoughts sent from my friends here provided a smile during otherwise unpleasant time.

For all of you who have been there thank you from the bottom of my heart I love you all.  For those who have not, well…whatever.
