May 2012

Whew, life has been so hectic lately.  May was a long month and after a couple of birthdays (Guy and me, plus more); two extended weekend trips; one move (we're renting the cutest house and got out of a crappy condo); week-long visit from Guy's family; a 10K race, and more . . . I'm just glad to be settling into a new home and trying to get back to 'normal'.

'Normal' seems far away still, though.  Nothing is cheeky or cheery here.  Guy's been gone all of June to sit by his dad's bedside in Indiana during his losing fight with lung-cancer.  He's hanging in there, but getting weaker and weaker each day.  Its been really tough knowing how much he must be suffering and watching Guy in agony, knowing I'm helpless (and far away) in the situation.  And, selfishly - I miss him and I wish he were home with me to settle into our new home since it's lonely without him; but, he's where he needs to be right now.

Hope you're all doing well!  Happy Summer . . . do you have any exciting plans?

And, our month in photos . . .
