A mending wind...

I am so sorry that it has been so long since I last wrote. So much has been going on here in the place where the winds seem to never stop. It seems that we have had one wind storm after another blow through our lives these last few weeks..
The first one to pass our way came when we were expecting it. When ever my ex husband starts to act civil we know that he is up to something. Well sure enough he is wanting to play dirty again. He is getting remarried and I am happy for him, the girl he is marring seems to be a very nice girl and i wish them all the best in life I hope that their marriage will be one of love and happiness and I mean that from the very depths of my heart. The storm hit when he informed me that he wants her to be able to adopt my children. I think not so once again it appears we will be headed back to court. I am hoping that it is just one more of his futile thoughts and nothing comes of it but it still broke branches off of our tree when the winds hit.
The second wind storm was not as strong when it hit yet it left damage as well. A certain person I have wrote about before has stupid to new lows and it is getting old. I sent an email trying to be nice asking this person to lunch one day. When I got no response I let it drop and had moved on. Until this person called the man I am with and told him that I hated them and wanted nothing to do with them hence causing friction between my man and I . So like any normal adult when he got home from work I showed him the emails and dates they had been sent to prove I had been trying. That was when the storm started. I received a phone call on my home phone from said person yet when I answered this person hung up. I tried to call back but they wouldn't answer and so I sent an email asking why they would call only to hang up on me when if they wanted to talk to my man all they had to do was ask and I would of handed him the phone. The response I got was rude, snotty and immature for a 30 year old. Sadly it didn't end there. In response to my email as well this person once again called my man at work and told him I had said several things I hadn't and that I was just trying to make problems. So once again when he returned home I showed him the emails I had gotten and sent.. He is now not talking to said person and I am getting crap from them because I am destroying a 12 yr friendship.. Sadly some people just need to grow up.. Needless to say that once again a few of our branches were knocked off the tree..
The biggest storm hit late in the week. my mans 14 yr old son was brought home to his mothers house by the cops.. It seems that this young man had decided to light a fire at a church building. The fire caused several hundred in damage.. He is now being charged with arson and is now having to be watched 24 hrs a day by an adult.. In a way it is nice because we are now able to spend some time with him but it is sad how it all had to come about. This is the first time he has ever been in trouble for anything.. When asked why he did it he simply said if he had to live with his mother he would rather be in jail.. Which makes us wonder what else is going on in the home to cause something like this. Sadly we have to deal with one thing at a time and right now that is keeping him out of jail.. After that we will be able to look into him maybe coming to live with us.. So needless to say this last storm almost took all the branches off our tree..
The good news is that a mending wind seems to be blowing now.. We went in today and got the latest test results back.. t seems this new cocktail that the Dr have me on and the last radical treatment that they did is working.. There have been no signs of rejection as of yet, and things seem to be maintaining the levels that are needed.. As of right now there has been no improvement but just to have the levels maintain themselves is a miracle in its self.. I am still weak and drained most of the time and the list of things to expect due to the meds is miles long. I am sure it stretches from here to Idaho.. Having only been on this cocktail for a short amount of time I am already seeing some of the side effects appear.. I look like a teenager again I am broken out with acne so bad I don't even want to leave the room. My hair continues to thin. I used to be able to take one of the large scrunchies and wrap it around my hair once when pulled in a pony tail.. Now I can wrap a medium one three times.. My skin is still an ungodly shad of yellow, and i am once again losing weight.. I guess I just might get back down to the size I was in high school.. Not many people can say that after having three children..lol..
One just takes the days as they come and makes the best out of them that they can. For now I will go out after each storm and pick up the branches that have been blown off, I will nurture and care for our loving tree, and smile because each day is one more day I am still here..
