I started to write this from my Aunt's house. Too many people around to bother me, so here I am.
Friday was an interesting day. It started with a text message saying that gma was in the hospital. She had pneumonia and was not doing well. She was admitted to the hospital.
Then I got a phone call from my female best friend A. She found out that she had some addictions that are personal that I am not going to share here. She checked herself into a rehab center in my hometown and was there for 3 weeks. She views this as one of the hardest things she's ever gone through in her life. She's been having a tough time of it. I hope she can come out on the upswing of it. It's quite upsetting to realize that your best friend is going through something and you can't even help them.
Additionally, my co workers mother is in the hospital with pancreatic cancer. She's got a big tumor that is inoperable. And apparently the tumor has gotten bigger. She has a DNR and she's having surgery today. So say a prayer for M's mom.
Finally the night closed with FANTASTIC news (I am dripping with sarcasm that does not easily convey over this medium). Cookie called and said I wanted to talk you about our relationship. I say, ok. He goes on to say that he knows himself very well and he knows that he is going to continue to let me down. Rather than continue to prolong things, and have feelings develop and continue to be hurt, he ended things. I was at the same place myself, but I was hoping for a different outcome. Obstacles are going to come up in a relationship and I think you can overcome them if you and the other person is willing and committed to it.
