No pic -- exhausted...

Woke up at 6 am, realizing I won't wake up in my bed again until August 9th. So I got up and cleaned my condo, packed for 10 days, and got Drew up and headed off to Durham. Then the weird news started flowing -- Drew going to stay in fifth grade, and the results of his academic testing was that he was in the superior average scale, which I don't really know what that means. Could be either on the superior side of average or the average side of superior. Very confusing these academic terms.

Lots of eye opening lines from his therapist today, who I got a letter from in the mail. Then a nice note from a guy I sold a lens to last week. And a bill or two.

Got told this morning that my dad has a wee bit of cancer, which caused me to kick straight into problem solver mode. Talked to my mom about it for about 30 minutes, and 10 minutes with him. Then spent about 30 minutes with a good friend who is a oncology radiation specialist about treatment options. With a healthy dose of worry, concern, fear, and prayer mixed into the day.

One of my Sunday School class members died this morning. Dot was a good soul -- loved to talk, and play goldf, and had a long life raising a child who lived to middle age with a lifelong terminal disease (and who passed about three years ago). She and her husband Bob are both great people, and will keep him and their family in my prayers...

Too many work issues to articulate, and lots of meetings during the day. Did get to see my favorite three words pop up on my phone thrice today. But I end this day with so much exhaustion...

Sorry no pic. Way too much going on.
