Thought I'd post to the roll now since I won't be around on monday morning and have a free moment.
Last week started off busy at work and then life changes in a moment. That moment was my daughter falling 10~12 feet from a tree in the ajoining woods and screaming bloody murder. I carried her out of the woods and to the hospital where she had surgery to pin her left arm back together. She injured her pelvis where the spine meets and hasn't been able to walk yet. On Monday we see the surgeon again and hope the arm swelling is down enough to move to a permanent cast. She's able to sit up on her own now so the pelvis is showing some improvement. She will heal but this could had easily been horribly worse. Got to look on the positives where I can and at least I'm still able to carry her around--barely~she's getting too big and I'm getting old'er. On the plus side I get to spend a lot more Daddy-Daughter time.
Ya know I heard that long quiet smoke voice tempting me.
Below my daughter's room outside the ER side door I saw someone smoking. That look he had said it all, worry. Each drag and forced exhale looked as if he was hoping the smoke would take his worry from him.
The dawn of a new day is peering thru the slats on the window.
Soon we'll draw the blinds and welcome the new day with the hope that it brings.

I'm still smokefree.
