Three and a Half Men ( - one)

I am overwhelmed by the love I have for the men in my life.  I am thankful to have Wyatt and Jesse home with me and know if all things remain equal, Wyatt will be here at least four more years and Jesse well a really long time.  I am missing AJ terribly tonight.  I looked at some pictures of my grown son on Facebook and feel such pride and happiness for his life and future...but heart sick at the same time.  I am missing him terribly.
Doug,Wyatt, Jesse and me decorated Halloween cookies last night.  It was a fun family time for us. I have pictures on my facebook album Fabulous Fall.
I boxed up a dozen Halloween and a dozen Toll House as well as a couple of his favorite DVDs and a card to mail him for a special treat.  There is very little time that he is not on my mind.

Anxiety is raging through me today.  I feel unsteady and exhausted....I am trying to concentrate on what I know rather than what I feel.  I know I am loved and blessed  beyond measure...

Hard to believe we are winding down the last few months of October.  This fall is disappearing at a pace I have trouble believing.  My oldest boy is away at school.  Everyday it gets a little easier, feels a little more natural, but I still miss him. 

Round and Round

Once again I feel myself slipping away into an abyss of loneliness and depression.  I have to wonder if some of it has to do with the weather change.  It has gone to beautiful late summer to cold and rainy.  Just a taste of what these next few months will be like.  Snow is coming there is no denying that harsh truth.  Back to early morning snow removing and nights starting at 6 pm.
I have my kids.  Wyatt and Jesse.  They are a lot of company, but they don't fill this void I have in my heart. 
Another day of more to do than I have time to do it.  Another day of not measuring up.
