The Weekend

It was a pretty good weekend!  We stayed at work late on Friday night.  We'd learned how to take snapshots with the new web cam.  

On Saturday, we went to work.  Usually, just Sister Tess, Clear Sky, and I are there, but it was the day when all the parent's meet all the staff.  We handed out advertisements for pictures.  We figured we'd lure people all the way back to our new corner office.  We wanted to show it off!  It worked out fine and everyone was pleased.

After that Forest Path and I had time to talk both at the office and at a Chinese restaurant.  We want to write a very small book and he had told us a long time ago if we ever decided to write, he would become our business manager.  This was one of those times where the discussion was so great, I had to sit on our hands to keep from interrupting! 

Sunday we didn't really go out.  It was quiet here with just the kitties, Missy and Chief.  Most of the day was nostalgically spent looking through a few pictues sent of us from my father's estate.  They supplemented our collection of self and favorite home pictures.  There's only about 40 to account our long 40 some years of age.  We have about as many of the boys, especially when they were younger.

We plan to talk them over with Dr. M. this morning.  He's never seen pictures of us when we were young, or of our place, or of the skinny adult us.  We gained a tremendous amount of weight the year before we started to see him due to side affect of medicines and having been sexually attacked in '98.  Even before that, we were not doing well.  We'd lost custody of the boys due to court fees, we needed to to sell our home, file for bankrupsy, and give up our therapist, job, and dog.   But, we have our faith in God.  We were directed to a homeless shelter and started the beautiful rebounding we seem to do so well!
