Life in the Bubble

Owen woke me up this morning and explained why everyone was already grumpy.  After awhile I said blearily, and o.k....with a touch of irritation, "oKAY Owen" which then set him off...."see...nobody understands me" and off he stomped.

Lovely.  

That's o.k. though as things ARE lovely.  Yesterday we saw Dr. Graham and heard that Ernie's PSA was still undetectable despite the fact that he's been completely off the hormone therapy for several months now.  I felt light all evening. Just light....like I was floating.

And it's opening day for baseball.  I don't even follow baseball but to me it has a romance that other sports don't seem to have..... AND we have a door for our bathroom (thank you Todd).  AND we met Todd at PACA last night and we bought two old doors that match the rest of the doors in our house and he's going to figure out how to use them as French doors in our bathroom.  Yes folks, that means NO BIFOLD doors!!!

So life is good.  Sometimes I feel as though I'm living in this little bubble of time...this little bubble in which we don't have any major problems.  We've had them in the past and I know we will again but right now I like life in my little bubble.  Sometimes I can just SEE my little bubble. We still have the run of every day problems that every one has....but I'm savoring this bubble all I can these days.  Ernie's doing great, I'm fine, the boys are wonderful, my job is good. We worry about money but we manage o.k.  We have our worries, and issues that concern us...but life is good.

Here is Peter Cooper singing "Opening Day."

Here's a bit of our new bathroom door with the nice Bennington doorknob we bought at PACA.  We got another one last night so our closet doors will have the same knobs.  I can't even explain why these doorknobs make me so happy.
