Randomness
So I’ve been away visiting my Mum with the little guy. I’ve gotta say it’s so relaxing being away from the apartment and it’s many stresses. Not to mention the fact that I have an extra set of hands when the baby needs something. We managed to visit all Mum’s friends and show off Goober Monster to everyone. We even got out to London and visited with my Gran. It’s so cute, since my Mum is Gran to GM, my Gran decided she wanted the title of “Great” for him.
Upon returning I spent 4 hours in traffic to complete a usual 2 hour trek. Needless to say I was a weensie bit cranky when I finally got home. And of course I found that Retard was not exactly “normal”. He hasn’t had a drink since he was assessed and scared straight on August 28th, which is amazing. However to keep him from drinking he is taking Valium which gives him some of the same characteristics as when he’s drinking. Today though he was 100% unaltered (okay he had a couple of smokes – another thing he’s supposed to have quit) which was totally amazing. It was so nice to be able to trust him with the baby and just relax. I felt the knots in my stomach finally uncurl just that little bit. I really need this to continue and hopefully the fuss I made about how great it was to see him again will get the idea across.
Since I’m feeling slightly random (as is probably obvious from my disjointed entry above), why not do a random meme?
