Here we are at the last day of the year. It's been a dramatic week, although everyone is alright. I keep telling myself, everyone is all right. There have been some poor choices, and there has been some drama not at all brought on by the kids. Additionally, there is a young man the same age as Catherine who is in failing health, and my prayers go to his family. I know his sister well, and I just can't imagine. And it makes me feel guilty about the sadness and anxiety I am feeling about my own healthy children. My mom also continues to have health problems, and the dynamics of dealing with the family are challenging. It was also challenging to have my mother-in-law here the entire time, although I do adore her. The hard part was her having an opinion on all of the drama around her. I am hoping that some medications will help me to get my head together and feel better as we head into the new year.
We are heading to our friends' house for the evening. Catherine is joining us, I'm not sure what Thomas's plans are. Knowing he will be out driving at Midnight definitely adds to my anxiety at the moment. I've been doing a lovely puzzle to help distract and to calm me. I am very grateful there are still two more days until back to work!
