Tis the season

It's been a really really difficult few weeks.

Doctors. MRI's. Biopsy's. I'm pleased to report, that all tests are inconclusive. It seems to be the mystery disease, with some strange symptoms. Blood test results pending.

Work. Spent a week away for my day job. Then came home, and have been working 15-17 hours every day - between my day job, custom orders for Woolies, and Buster and boo being really busy. Thank you to all my customers! I pray that all the packages arrive safely, please!!

My son. I don't usually write about super-personal things on my blog. But today, I need some catharsis. My son and his girlfriend, who have been together for a year, seem to be splitting. It's a long long story, and very heart-wrenching. My heart is broken for them. And I've been crying for the better part of the last few days. This was not your typical high school romance. They are not your typical kids. And we never expected it to end; truly, not ever.

So I go outside to get some sunshine, and what do I find? This put such a quiet smile on my face.

Horses, napping in the sun.

oh, i hate to hear this. i am so sorry it's been a tough few weeks for you and your son. :(
i hate to hear your tests were inconclusive. you work too much. a new year's resolution should be to slow down, life is too short...you should enjoy your life!
i hope things start looking up and soon. and as sad as the break-up is, someday looking back, you and your son and everyone will understand it and maybe even be grateful it didn't work out. i know that's hard to comprehend now, but that is how i feel about my first love now...i am *so* glad it didn't work out! ever hear that song by garth brooks- 'Unanswered Prayers'?

I hope you get some time now to relax and that things will look up in your life.
It's so hard to see our kids go through the end of a relationship.
All my best wishes for everyone! Hugs!
