Living on West Tulsa Time

I overcame a demonlast night

I ran across an old lover. He once broke off all contact because our bc failed and I was pregnant with his baby. I was horribly sick and looked awful, standing in the grocery store line getting medicine, tea and coffee. The feelings, those heart stopping, uterus flipping, knees melting feelings weren't there. It wasn't just because I was sick. My husband's face and gentle ways popped into my head. I felt calm and protected. I was so happy when I walked away. I had to speed home and hug my husband. There he was in the soft light of a low wattage bulb. The sleeping baby draped over his left arm. He was sharing knock knock jokes with our older son.

He's such a good father and husband. I'm a real witch to them sometimes. Whatever I did to deserve them, I hope I can continue to do it.

These poor kids. They're coughing and snot nosed. The baby is so sick. He's also hungry. It is after all 11 and time for that bottle.
