Lucky Dorito

Right now, I’m off enjoying myself with Lena…. doing some Christmas shopping and feeling pretty good. But, earlier this week…. actually as recent as yesterday morning – I was a bit of an emotional wreck. There is really no good reason for it – this has just been a long week. We were on the go each evening with something going on, plus I’ve had a series of massive headaches throughout the week that really knocked the wind out of my sails.

Not to mention the fact that I am a lousy medicine-taker and I never took the time to pick up my prescription refills so I ran out of my happy pills several days ago. (Maybe that’s why I had a headache, huh?)

And…. that stupid pinched nerve or whatever is happening in my neck that causes my fingers to go numb towards the end of a long work week, after sitting chairside for many consecutive hours working on my patients. (Or, maybe that contributed to my headache, huh?)

I don’t know what…. but something conspired to make me both weepy and sad and empty.

So when my overly concerned husband made the following speech – I dissolved into a large pile of mush.

He said, “Honey, you are the love of my life. My wife. My best friend. The mother of my children. And I love you. So… you HAVE to take care of yourself.”

And then I had to mop myself up off the floor.

Flash forward about 3 hours. I was driving to meet up with my sister for our big weekend when I heard the following song. Believe me, the tears returned with a vengeance. (It’s really hard to drive with a veil of tears in your eyes, by the way.)

I love you Mr. Lucky. Always and Forever.
