My beloved son, the middle one, just popped back into my life after nearly three years of being out of contact. I am overjoyed that he is safe. He spent the last few months in jail, but it gave him the chance to access mental health care and get diagnosed with clinical depression. I'm sure that was a lot of the reason he disappeared - depression can really cause you to disconnect from your support network. At least now he has medication and if he can keep doing the work stay on the meds, there is hope for recovery. I'm so excited, he is coming over for dinner tomorrow night! I can't wait to see him. He is gonna be really shocked by how much Ruth has grown!
The down side was telling him about his grandmother and great grandmother dying last year, the dog dying two years ago. The up side was telling about the yarn store and how well that is going and him how well Ghost is doing in college.
In other news, Stitches is over for another year. It went well and I had a good time - I actually like working trade shows - except for the horrible cold, even with symptom suppressors it was a little rough at times.
