2013 off to an interesting start.

A quick update on the reading of the blog and reaction from my husband.   He has been back to the blog - which surprised me because I didn't think he would be able to find it.  Apparently he googled 'Mrs. Yes' and was able to find the blog from my profile.  So I was happy that he had made that effort on his own.   He absolutely can't believe that I have 'followers' or that there are so many hits.  He is astounded that people actually are interested in this and follow along.  No negative reactions at all!

There is a very subtle shift in the relationship and daily interaction.  I feel like for me now that he is reading my thoughts of the last year it is easier and more comfortable to initiate.  At the same time I can feel a difference in the way that he is initiating.  Will wait a while longer to explore that as a blog entry.

This process of the reveal and reactions is slower than I thought due to the other things going on in life.

Our oldest had a scheduled surgery on Friday, a tonsillectomy.  We were prepared for that, what we weren't prepared for was his girlfriend to be admitted to the hospital.  Her mom is out of town and she was too sick to be left alone.  We were in urgent care and ER all day on Thursday.  Then right after outpatient surgery on Friday, we were back again - this time she was admitted and stayed until Sunday afternoon.  My son stayed with her, and I ran back and forth as he couldn't drive on his pain medication.

Today they are both resting comfortably and I am trying to get them healthy enough to head off to college out of state for classes that start next Monday!
