Priorities

Well, I guess the mattes aren’t a huge priority for me right now. It was a big deal to get them all cut tot he right size. But, now that that is done, I seem not to be too worried about the next step. For one, I’ll have to pick for sure which ones to frame. For another, if I need to do any more cutting, I know I can go do it with permission and ease. So, no longer worried about missing out on that chance, as I originally was, before going.

All that to say that I didn’t do them tonight. I didn’t get home until rather late for me. But I had a great time visiting my grandmother with my mom and husband. I also got to share with her about the recent miscarriage, and about the good news that my levels are all good to proceed forward again. She was really sweet and easy about it. She was sad, but glad to hear the blood test cleared me for safe progression this past weekend. She said that, “Back in my day,” she had two miscarriages, and they really must just be a natural and normal thing. I had worried she might take it too hard. Her easy way of saying this, and so quickly after hearing, made it clear that she was truly okay about it all. She agree that it is only natural for us to try again and again to procreate. I commented that it wasn’t like we would be upset at the prospect, and she made some cute comments about not being too excited or rambunctious while at it, because “we don’t need triplets or twins running around here,” and ‘that’s what happens if you’re too rambunctious during the process.’

We were cracking up. It was truly a lovely and fun time with her. I am very grateful.

Thank you, God. Help my grandma to be healthy and well, please. Help us to spend good time with her. In your name, I pray. Amen.
