Sunday

Up at 5:30 this morning.

No rush to move, just lying there for a bit, easing into the day, scrolling and letting the quiet settle around me.

A birthday party on today for my granddaughter’s friend, one of those simple, sweet lunchtime gatherings at a play centre.

Yesterday was all about preparation.

Getting things lined up for Easter next weekend, thinking ahead, organising what needs to be done so it doesn’t all land at once. That quiet kind of productivity that doesn’t look like much, but sets everything up.

My daughter is still sick.

That sits in the background of everything at the moment.

We are waiting for Tuesday, an appointment for a second opinion on her medication plan.

It is a holding pattern until then.

Let’s see how that goes.
