July 4th!

I hope you had a wonderful and safe July 4th. For me, I went to lunch with an old friend I hadn't seen for about 2 years. Michelle is an artist and does Henna Tattos. We talked bout our lives and her new boyfriend and how good the Pinani is at Camilles. If there's a Camilles in your town, I highly recommend it.

I also took about a 2 hour walk on Turkey Mountain, a five mile hike though some very rough country. I got partly through and realized that I didn't have a camera, then I realized I DID! My phone is also a camera. You can see my horrible pics of it here.

((( hugs ))) Frankly, i could use the hugs, as well. Josh has decided he does not want to spend time with his mother any more.

Aw Capi, it happens to every mother. Sons AND daughters will pull away at a certain time to establish that they have an identitiy away from being the child. It lasts a relatively short time, and the adult the child is growing into with be in a battle for domination with the child the adult is growing out of. Your heart is the battle ground. The solace I would take is that in the both will come back to you, looking for that shining star, Acceptance.

Yeah. I know this.

In my *head* i know. My heart, not so much. I know it's temporary, but.... well, let's just say i can cope with physical pain a LOT more easily than this kind, eh?
