And So It Goes...2003-08-29 - 8:41 a.m. So it looks like Kurt's going to be gone longer than expected. He was going to come home this weekend, but yesterday his mom asked him to stay another week. He told me on the phone last night. Talk about disappointed... I tried to deal, but the tears got the best of me. Then he starts telling me that he'll make it up to me, etc... That just made me cry more. It's not like he did anything wrong. I wouldn't EVER want to leave if I was him. I'd hate to be him right now. This is really taking a toll on him. He said his mom was really tired yesterday, and that her belly is getting bigger everyday (tumor). I also went to visit my grandmother yesterday. Krissy saw her Wednesday night and called me on her way home in tears. She said that grandma didn't know who anyone was and that she was talking incoherently about parties and water and people coming to get her. When I got there, grandma looked very different, but then I realized it was just because she didn't have her teeth in. Then we started talking and she seemed fine other than the fact that she referred to me as her niece once. I didn't go to work yesterday either - that was nice. I had to do a conference call at 11:30 Wednesday night and then couldn't really fall asleep so I stayed home. Beat Cam home by about half an hour so I decided to start dinner early. It was his favorite. American Spaghetti. Don't ask. It's really nothing special, but the kid absolutely loves it for some reason. Anyhoo, he shows up right around 3 with another kid, Nick. He asked if Nick could come in and they hung out for a while then decided to go to Kristin's house. I told him dinner would be done around 4:30 and he asked if Nick could stay for dinner. No problem. After dinner, he did the dishes and asked if they could go back out. So much for mother and son bonding. Know what else? I had to write him a $25 check made out to the Secretary of State Wednesday night so he could get his learner's permit. To say I'm not looking forward to this is a gross understatement. I can't believe my little boy is going to be driving in a few weeks. Luckily, Mike's already asked if he could teach him how to drive; don't think my nerves could take it. I'm a shitty passenger with experienced drivers, let alone beginners. Anyway, I'm rambling so I should quit. Just in a funk being torn between missing Bunn with the long weekend coming up and knowing that his weekend is going to be anything but pleasant with his mom. I just feel helpless here not being able to do anything for him or her... Hasta. Looking back... Just Pix - 2005-02-08
