in a funk, but looking up....

So, my chem lab was cancelled today and I had a lot of nervous energy because I was waiting for a few phone calls.  To pass the time, and because I have been in a funk since my leg injury and now that it is healed I haven't run, we (me and Taylor) went for a walk through the back of the subdivision.  They are building 4 new houses there now, the first new houses since we moved into the neighborhood.  Taylor showed me his "cave tree" and all the tadpoles (lots!).  We are going to take the little two to see them soon.  Then, we had a long conversation about a story he is working on. He told me all about reincarnation and how it works (in his story) and it was detailed and creative and fascinating.  I am glad that we went for that walk.  I need more time, we were avoiding this predicament and now our priorities are confused again.  I will be getting my apartment by June, this semester will be over, and come hell or high water I will start running again.  Although things have been a little and stressful, they are working themselves out.  (well, I am working them out.)  Now, there is some more waiting and some serious conversations with the kids, and some crying to be done, then, the moving forward can begin again.  We are really working hard at this point to keep things positive, and we both hope that this can continue.  I, for one, am very happy that we are not fighting (legally or otherwise) through this, it sucks bad enough.  Here's to looking forward to our future.
