Despite all the stress we've been under this past week, there have been some great highlights. Here are just a few:
-Waking up at 4:00 in the morning to go to the bathroom and finding my brother awake with a pot of coffee on. Sharing almost 3 hours of conversation and coffee as the sun came up.
-Staying up late with my brother laughing at each other as we sit in front of the computer looking at 3D animations with goofy looking 3D glasses on.
-"Sneaking" out at 1:00 in the morning to go get coffee with my brother, laughing at ourselves as we feel like little kids who are sneaking behind our parents backs. We need help!
-Driving my brothers Chrysler 300 with the windows down and Journey streaming from the radio!
-Being able to have real friends who except me where I am right now and still want to be around me (even if it mean bringing my kids to meet for coffee when I was supposed to be enjoying a girls night out...by myself).
-Knowing that my husband has been opening up more.
-Running into old friend from our old church and catching up. Also finding out that they live close to where we are now.
-Going fishing with my brother and sister.
-Being the only one who caught a fish the entire day of fishing. Wooo-hooo me!!

Glass half full, Beth.
I'm glad you're getting some fun quality time with your brother. You'll probably look back to this time with good memories and see it to be a sweet experience. Things will look up,you'll see:0)
Great post, Beth. Great stories and tales.
