To All the Fathers

 Happy Father's Day to all the incredible men out there who love and support their children. Darrin is an amazing dad, and I'm so thankful for all his love and support for our family.

As we all say, time passes quickly. Until I start thinking of things past, I never realize how quickly time is flying. Except when I see Ariya and Hendrix. They are cool little people who are growing so fast it's freaky. My Nana told me not to wish my babies away; love them and cherish the time as it goes by too fast. She was so very wise, not that everyone in my family would agree with me. Nana taught me a lot of things. She was a good Nana and I loved her so much. I didn't wish my babies away, although some days I thought my mind was blown and I probably did wish a little. Three babies in 28 months was definitely a challenge. Now I have three babies in their 30's! How the hell did that happen? LOL

What's new? Hmmm. Drey and Joanna came over for supper last night. We had bbq chicken breasts with fried brussel sprouts and bacon, steamed asparagus and garlic, baby potatoes and onions. Everything was so yummy. I miss our Sunday dinners we had back before grandchildren, and before everyone was so busy with work and family. Now I cherish the times when we get together, especially when everyone can be here at the same time. It doesn't happen very often, that's for sure.

Darrin heads back to work tomorrow. He's got a longer stint because of some employee challenges. I think that's the most discreet and nicest way to put it. I think this job will be winding up in August, then it will be on to the next one. We're not sure where Darrin will be going but it likely won't be close to home. Let's just hope it's not Labrador again, although summer would be better than winter there.

I haven't been staying up on current events very well lately. I am so tired of mainstream media, and am never sure about listening to the non-mainstream. Propaganda is everywhere, and sifting through things to determine what is real and what is false is just a pain. I watch the first 15 minutes of the 5PM news and I catch the perceived top news stories, but mainly just watch for the weather.

I'm tired. I've been getting up at all hours of the night, with no hope of falling back asleep. I've also had a few changes in my medications and that wacks me out too. I hate taking things to sleep; three of the past meds I've tried for it didn't work so why bother still trying more. I hate pills too. Poo! So, for right now, I'm up at all hours and making do during the day without naps to screw things up worse.
