January 4th "April"

Accomplished some homework, good talk with Kennith, sit down dinner with whole family,  Debra giddy about chatting on the phone with her new best friend, expressed some creativity and was of service, felt good.   Hmmmm, I have no idea what any of this means for April.

January 5th "May"

In like a LION!  Phone rang at 1am, Kennith got picked up for parking ticket warrant and went to jail... YUCK. Not good rest, took Debra late for school.  Was planning on using a pedicure gift certificate and then taking advantage of the quiet house to do homework.  Had to do some work for the family business, take a bunch of calls from Kennith and bail bonds.  Struggled with whether to bail him out or not and finally settled on no, after much torment.  Now I am just waiting for him to call at 7pm so I can tell him he has to wait till Thursday morning to see a judge.  .... the phone is ringing now.... Well he is mad and sad.  But I think I am doing the right thing by him.  6:30 and I am just getting to my homework.  Well I will after I eat the delicious dinner of greek lemon chicken and potatoes, hummus and fresh tomatoes with warm Pita bread.    I think I did a good job at keeping my perspective today; "I am not in jail, I didnt break any laws, this is not my problem to solve.  I have much to be grateful for including my son being in jail.  Everything happens for a higher purpose, this may save him from a worser fate"  Peace is always present and I only ignored it for a few minutes here and there today.
