[QUOTE="Estherfromjerusalem, post: 136512, member: 77"] My life has been such a seesaw recently. My son (aged 38, former difficult child) said he was getting married, and the date was fixed (6 March). Then I had my surgery (carotid artery unblocked), and my neck is still giving me problems. It hurts all the time, but it is not unbearable. All the preparations for the wedding, money spent, and then things started to go a bit sour, and finally the wedding was called off, two weeks before the date. It was a relief when they finally decided, because when it was uncertain, I found it unbearable. So there was the shock of the wedding being cancelled. And then, on the night the wedding should have taken place, a 15-second walk from my home (that is NOT an exaggeration) a terrorist massacre took place. I heard the shooting. I still can't take it in, and it was a week ago already, that a murderous terrorist was right here near me and near my home, shooting innocent young boys (8 were killed. Wasn't it reported in the US? No one on the board has mentioned it, and no one has asked me anything about it or if I am OK). So I thought I would let you guys know that I am still around, quite depressed all in all. I am lucky in that I have so much work, and I can drown myself in it. And my family are wonderful (most of them). The bad news is that difficult child has finished three years in the army (that is a great achievement) -- and HE'S MOVING BACK HOME!!! Oh, it's unbearable, our lives are going to go upside down again, after it being so nice and quiet. Enough, I'll stop grumbling now, and creep back into my corner. Esther [/QUOTE]
