lots of hugs

I've been feeling kind of down since Aunt Bev left. Lonely I guess. I forgot what it was like to eat meals with another adult ... so nice! I miss Chris. I got to talk to Chris' brother Russell today on the phone. He's home from Afghanistan! I'm so happy he's home, but it made me remember how isolated I am in Minot from my family.
I've been struggling most of the day to be functionally, just putting one foot in front of the other, quietly readjusting to being alone again.
Seriously, my guardian angel must have been working overtime today because no less than eight people have gone out of their way today to have a conversation with me, let me know that I am in their thoughts, pay me a compliment or give me a gift.
Thank you. Today I needed it.
