Today it really feels like fall. A cold front came through overnight, and it's overcast and windy, and I love it. I know I'm probably a little odd that way, but I just don't feel there is anything cozier than weather like this. It helps that I'm off work today, and I don't have anywhere I need to be until Catherine & Thomas's band concert this evening. I'm grateful for this time.
We have received a great deal of sad news within the last 48 hours. The father of some very dear family friends, a man whom I have known literally my entire life, took his own life yesterday morning. He was in his 90's and although his physical deterioration had been slow, mentally the deterioration had been rapid. We also learned this morning that that a lady from church who has worked with Andrew for years passed away this weekend. It wasn't unexpected, but still sad.
We also learned the results yesterday of my aunt's lymph node biopsy. Only one lymph node has cancer, but it is still one more than we had hoped.
With all of this sadness, I am grateful for some down and alone time today.
