Alternate Universe
I just love the sci-fi theme of alternate universe. If you want things to go down a different path, they can, and everything that happened before can still be true- Cart Blanche to make it the way you want it, whatever it is. Wouldn't that be nice? It would save a whole lot of people a whole lot of heartache.
Sometimes it's nice to get away from reality for a while. DH and I had a date tonight and we went to see Star Trek. I loved it! It was nice to step into the story and relax.
Befor that, we took Little Boy Blue to the zoo. He's such a daddy's boy. It's not even funny. It sucks when DH works the night schedule. We had two good quarters schedule wise, so I guess it was time for the crappy one again. It's hard for all of us, but especially LBB. Right about the time we get used to it, it'll change again. LBB gets excited because he's looking forward to DH being off all day. Add the zoo into that mix and you get one ecstatic little boy. He had a good day watching all the animals- and bugs sharing it with daddy.
Then we came home and worked outside for a while. It was nice to get things done. The lawn looks good and I scrubbed the mommy van's carpets. Being that it is the mommy van, it won't stay clean for long- but it looks nice now. Cleaning relaxes me. My husband thinks I'm OCD and my sister thinks I have Ausbergers. I'm sure neither one of them has ever perused the DSMR so I won't worry about it too much. But maybe they are both right. :) I still want everybody to accept that to be a functional weirdo, is really normal. :)
My issue is that I worry too much.
We are about to start another round of work with the allergist and I'm actually tryng not to think about it. We are seeing a new doc. He's the head of research in our area, and really good. To do better, we'd have to drive to NY once a month. We'll see how this goes. LBB doesn't need to focus on it either because he's scared and our next appointment is weeks away. Pray for us that one day his dairy allergy will be gone, or at least not life threatening.
I'm upset about the news of my FFPM classmate. I feel for his family, too. No one cares to be pitied, and I'm sure this guy would hate it. I won't go down that road. It's better that we do what we can. I offered childcare and meals, but I'm not sure they need/want that right now. What I can do is pray.
Lot of praying going on, now. I need some help with it.
I got on thinking I'd blog about the movie, but I don't really feel like doing that. It was good. I really enjoyed it. I'll probably even watch it again, which is saying something. Tell you about it later.
Take care you all.
Be safe.
