Hello lovely people.
This morning I’ve been trying to catch up to this thread and I began reading backwards just like Fred.
I want to thank you for the sweet messages of support you all posted a few days ago, I apologise for not writing back right away but I’m still overcoming the deep sadness that has over taken my spirit for days now, but the sun is shining my way and I’m trying to feel better and look at all the bright aspects of the current situation and how to improve things not only for our family but for the whole country. Next Saturday there are marches planned throughout the country against violence and for gun reform and I’m going to be there making my voice heard. Hopefully millions will come out so Congress can get a grip of the support there is to change the current situation. There has been over 230 mass shootings in this country since the beginning of this year, this can’t continue and hopefully in November we will make our voices heard about it too at the ballot.
Sofia is having her 5th grade graduation on Monday and I volunteered to set up and work on the celebration festivities. I can’t believe she will be in middle school in just a few months, she is going through a growth spurt at the moment and she is looking more like a young lady than a kid. The past couple of weeks I was resolved in finding her a therapist and I did, she has began therapy this morning and I hope having this extra form of support will help her deal with all the fears and issues that are arising as she deal with the pressure of becoming a teenager. I’m thrilled my new super expensive health insurance coverage is going to pay 100% of the appointments and there is no even a copayment so this is a huge win for our family.
This weekend the hubby is in Virginia for his uncle’s funeral, but I didn’t go because I’m still testing positive for Covid so just in case I stayed behind. Sofia is also busy with her best friend so I found myself at home all on my own, a very rare experience so I’m trying to figure out what to do with myself. The house is already sparkly clean and the garden is taken care off as well. I may just put a bikini, lay in the sun and read a book and pretend that I’m somewhere in the Caribbean or the Mediterranean lol
