I had many long conversations with my sister yesterday, and I’m glad I could talk to him. I’ve listened to update me on everything that happens in his life, and I’m glad I chance to learn about it. It has a lot of things. I also learned about his position on the last run, she has had with the father, and where she is with Mom, Dad and me. It is always iffy on Mom and Dad … baffled by the way they really are … but it is on good terms with me. It has its problems, but overall, it does not blame me for anything. I’m really happy to hear that, to know that I have a sister. She even talked about how she will try to do more time with his family by changing churches and letting go of some of these responsibilities, and she even included me and my family in these new plans . That felt really good. She was also very pleased that I had called just to talk and see how she would do after the last incident … he’s very happy to know that I care, as well. So it is an excellent new events.
I’m sitting on my front again now, and Patrick joined me for a cigarette. We have our two kitties here with us, too, and two children were asleep. It is now time to relative peace. I can see the moon hanging over through the oak States. I can feel the summer starts to creep up on us in the south, but I must say that the season of transition has been very good this year. I really enjoyed them this time.
Layne, I let go in the street and play with neighboring children. These people seem a little dubious to me, but I decided that he play with their little boy, Layne who goes to school with, as long as they remain outside and in my view. In this way, I would not snub their child, and do not seem like a snob to them. We have new neighbors on both sides of us, too, and I met everyone. Each of these families have small children, two boys and very close to the age of Evelyn. They all seem to agree, like people. I often wonder if we will all become quite nice to go out and eat together or something, but I doubt I’ll always be the first to propose such a thing.
I drink a Bloody Mary, tonight, but I am sure this will be my own. I made one last night, too, but only took about two sips of it and then I went to. I went around 9pm last night and actually slept through the night. It was nice. I woke up fresh and ready to start my day that goes … a little dull. Tomorrow will be the same, I am sure.
I think we’ll go to the grid with a couple of friends this weekend. One of them, PC, alias Perry, is leaving for California next weekend, this will be the farewell gathering. It will be a sad time, but I am sure we will enjoy being with them, too. And then next weekend I hope to work with you some of Patrick’s work buddies and their wives to grills, and games, and drink at home. Maybe you go very well, especially if it does not rain.
Ugh. Little social Sly. Where did she come??! I think it emerges from the cabinet or something …
I suppose this is all I have for tonight. I hate leaving my little escapade called "porch", but there is a Bloody Mary in the house call for me, so I think I’d better get them involved in it. G’night all!
