YES!!​
 
Despite the turmoil that was my brain last night and the lack of sleep, I find myself in relatively good spirits for such a smokey day. I have a new thread to look forward to, something that has been in the back of my brain for some time and a co-writer to help me with it. Another thread that will be a second installment of a current thread. I'm looking forward to that one as well.

There's two posts owing (thank you M13 and BehaviorMod) and a brain to prod to get ideas onto electronic paper. It's going to be a good day.

*she blinked. Kissed him and watched him fade back into the RW before she grinned.*

Love you. Adore mornings.

*soft laughter with a shake of her head*

Two visits to the ER, one emergency surgery, one scar that's MUCH longer than I'd planned for. Going on day 7 in the hospital, and desperately hoping I can get the heck out of here sometime soon. My eldest started 2nd grade on Tuesday, and my baby started Kindergarten on Tuesday. I was in the hospital, unable to see them off to school. This whole first week of school, I've been unable to see them off to school. And it really just sucks. This hospital room alternates between feeling way too big and lonely, and feeling closed in and like I'm suffocating. My husband has been amazing through all of this. He's essentially a single parent until I'm home, and he's been doing a really great job. He's also still working, because we still have to have money coming in, and he's coming to visit me as often as he can while balancing all these other things.

I've never been more happy about modern technology. Because of it, I can talk to my boys and my husband all day every day. I can see pictures of them from their first days of school. I can hear their excitement, and how Mich they miss me like I miss them.

The doctors say it's going to be a long road to recovery, but the sponer I can get home to recover the better. I miss my babies and all the cuddles and snuggles and smiles and giggles. I miss the way they light up llmy world with a simply sweet 'I love you.' I miss the simple act of holding my husband's hand and curling next to him on the couch or in bed. They say that I've been improving, I'm not pale today like I've been the last few days, I'm moving around more on my own. I'm looking forward to possibly having my IV removed tomorrow (IVs are the sick, especially in the hand) and perhaps getting a shower. Showers always make me feel better. And I might get the first look at my incision tomorrow - all I've seen so far is the bandage.

I'm extremely grateful for all the great people that have stepped in the help my husband balance work and the kids (mainly my mother in law, and my sister in law), I can never tell you how much I appreciate all you've done. <3
 
A small arrangement left by the stairs. Their blossoms white. It's an assortment of summer blooms before fall rolls in.

She found them this morning as she went for her usual cup of coffee. The sight of them made her smile. It wasn't something she ever counted on. It was just a lovely surprise to find them and sometimes, this girl liked surprises.

Scooping them up, she headed for the kitchen deciding on a slim blue vase to accent the white of the blooms. Fall was coming. She was going to miss the riot of colors he always graced her with. Leaning over the bouquet, she inhaled their scent before she took them and her coffee back to the study.
 
All In A Morning's Work

She had gone out, returned, cuddled with Papa Bear, talking quietly together before he slipped off for some much needed sleep that she hoped he was getting. In the meantime, she whipped out her checkbook and reached for the container of bills. It was that time of the month again.

Thumbing through the envelopes there wasn't one from the local uniform shop, thank goodness for small favors. That explained the sulky maids. She had to grin. The girls were spoiled by Ice's rough charm. So, when there was a lady who took up his attention, they sulked. It made her irritated with them but what could she say? Ice took damn fine care of the horses. She hadn't set eyes on him and she didn't expect to but the flowers always were a reminder he wasn't far away. Now and then, she'd hear Agatha barking and it made her smile.

Funny how you missed the small things sometimes. Noises from above. An empty glass left on the bar downstairs. She always kept a bottle of his choice on hand, just in case he popped in sometime. But she was adjusting to the quiet. One hand snagged out, flipping the small radio on her desk to on. Josh Turner's voice came floating out and she started to sing softly with him as she applied pen to check.

A coffee Faery brings

She doesn't come to the Lady's place.

But sometimes, she thinks on her and sends little visitors scurrying round and about to investigate, to see how the Lady fares.

This time, a tiny Fae helper she had sent a wandering, comes back and informs her that the Lady is in and busily preparing her monthly balances.

So she sends along a gift...and breathes vanilla scented breath onto the coffee colored Fae to send both the gift and the Fae...on their way.

It's not there. Then it is. And if she looks carefully, she'll see the little Fae hiding behind the cup. Opening her hand, palm up, she invites the Wee One to come sit. A quick sniff and she remembers this scent. There is only one other, aside from herself who uses vanilla as much. Slowly bringing her hand up to eye level, she smiles.

"Tell the Lady Wolf I am ever so appreciative for the gift and will thoroughly enjoy it. I know she never travels this way Wee One, but please pass on the invitation that my home is open to her."

She set the wee Fae back on the desk and opened the window for her, so she could fly away back to the Wolf's Haven.
