Survival

It is good to have James home, I love this dog.

At this point I am writing the post as a defense mechanism for all of the stress the last 3 months have involved so please bear with me as I get to a point where my lifestyle is meshing again.  This is not to say that I have not had great enjoyment over the period.  A more accurate portrayal is that I have prioritized much needed time to blow off steam in the middle of a time frame of day to day survival.

Not much happened this weekend, on Friday I had a very good night of drinking and conversation with Lord Darksteel, Monsieur OneTrack, Bomba and Vladimyr.  Gialdron was also there and he was in a relativity mellow mood (the calm before the storm.)

On Saturday, Gialdron had the beginning of a breakdown that has brought renewed pressure on our household and so we went into a holding pattern that allowed us to persevere and move forward.  I am intentionally not going into details for this is not the purpose of this blog.  Just know being a parent of an autistic adult who has an intrinsic paranoia against the Medical Field is very stressful.  After I had meditated and found some measure of solace, I finished out the day by getting some Chinese food from Mulan and watching Lawrence of Arabia.

On Sunday we dealt with more aftermath and fallout from the day before but it was a far more productive day. We then moved into the week and I ask Odin to help have the wisdom to face these battles with the right measure of tactics and compassion.
