I had a really good Friday. I had counseling and then met up with friends and talked while our kids ruled Chuck E. Cheese. After that I came home and prepared for an evening with a couple of friends, pizza and drinks. The kids were wound up but overall did well and were more than ready to hit the pillows at bedtime.
After they were in bed and asleep we played a game called Quelf which was hysterically funny and even more so when you add some alcohol to the game players. We did crazy things like cut out a mask and wear it until someone rolled a 4, left the room and had to stay out until someone came to find you, sit under the table for a round, etc. It was really a lot of fun and I look forward to playing it again soon.
It was a really great evening full of laughter, silliness, serious talk, tears, etc. All the things that I really needed and for a brief moment in time I stopped wishing for orlando vacations
Today it's back and forth but last night gave me hope. And I really needed to have some hope.....even a small sliver of it.

Casey, every day you find things to make you happy is a reward for being the strong person you are.
Those slivers of hope will start appearing more often, and they will start growing beyond slivers, and before you know it, you'll only be experiencing slivers of sadness because the hope and happiness will have moved in to fill the space. Keep at it!
