We never anticipate radiation. Ever. But its our current reality, so we try to make the most of it.
Today, we grabbed milkshakes on our way in. Its hard to know where to put money these days, and we’re very careful not to justify too many unnecessary purchases. Our absurdly generous circle of support has made it that we have NEVER had to buy coffee out of our own pocket pretty much since Brady’s surgery. So today, thanks to ALL the free coffees, we had a treat – milkshakes. It. Was. Awesome. It felt like a date, hahaha!
Brady went into his appointment and I pulled out my crocheting, as I do every single time. The project I’m currently working on is way too big to bring from place to place for a half hour of work, and its way too big to pull out in the van. But 🤷♀️ thats what I do. Crocheting relaxes me sooooo well. Last night, even, my anxiety was SO bad that my hands were shaking and my legs were jumping and I could not calm my body down. I resigned to my bedroom, and my hands got SO calm and relaxed when I started crocheting. When I would stop, my hands would start shaking again. I don’t know what that mess is all about, but its proven! Crocheting helps! Hahaha!
The coffee/milkshake is enjoyable. The music is enjoyable. The company is enjoyable. The crocheting is enjoyable. The sky is enjoyable.
Yet, all of that to say, I will not miss this place when this is all over. This is not where we belong.
Lord, protect us and keep us.
