Thank the Universe, she's okay. She said she was able to walk around the block today, which was a big step in recovery. She said the doctors and medical care are incredibly better in NY than it is here. I believe her. I love the beauty and much of the culture of California, but I have wished sometimes, for many reasons, that my parents hadn't come out here from New York.
So, she had the surgery and we didn't even know. If Noah (my son) knew and didn't tell me, it's really going to hurt. I hope that's not the case.
I just called my daughter and left a message. For the first time since she stopped communicating with me 3 1/2 years ago I did express some confusion, and maybe a touch of anger, in my message. She will be here in June to pack up her possessions and completely move out of she and her husband's house, then they'll finalize their divorce. Then she'll return to NY and continue to pursue her Ph.D.
In my message I asked her to please visit her aunt (my oldest sister) while she's in California. My sister is 77, has had a stroke that has...she's just very different. It would mean the world to her to see her niece.
I'm so tired and I have a headache (as usual). David is here taking a shower (he never did fix his plumbing) and it's not that I didn't want to visit with him, but I just want to go to sleep. Or at least lie in bed in the moonlight. I hope the therapist tomorrow says something to help me talk and doesn't just sit there staring at me. I hate when they do that.
I've always wanted to be a nun, I don't know why I wasn't born Catholic. I absolutely love Sister Julienne in Call the Midwife.

I hope everything goes well with your daughter and I wish you a very, good, good, good day!
