A quet day of reflection
Jun. 6th, 2026 08:31 pmStill absorbing yesterday's new. Reflecting about my chances, which are not numerous. Trying to figure out how I might live the rest of my life with the sword of Damocles hanging over my head on a silk thread. It is not easy, to put it mildly; but I have to play with the cards that have been handed to me. *sigh*
We had laundry day. I finished mini-Teddy #10 and sew together #s 11 and 12. They'll be stuffed and equipped with their little Santa hats and knitted scarves tomorrow. Life must go on.
I cooked lunch. Nothing fancy, just Topfenknödel. We only ate half of it. Mum's really upset, the poor thing, and when she's upset she can't eat much. So I won't have to cook tomorrow as we'll have the leftovers.
I talked to my friend Evie. She is great when it comes to moral support, but on the other hand, I did the same for her repeatedly in the past. Things like that can bring people really close.
H. called afterwards. Sent a few pictures about little Emma saying good-bye to kindergarten; that's always a festive occasion. That girl starts school in September - where has the time gone? It is strange that H. is the only family that still keeps in regular touch, even though she and my cousin divorced ten years ago.
