Highlights: Breakfast at L. G. cafe. with. both kids. So much history. Lauren and I went to Santa Cruz while to Sous Vide Tri Tip cooked. So much history. Returned and lazed about the house, played with Lucky in the backyard, and seared the tri tip so we all 4 could-have dinner together. So much hstory, too. A discussion that I have to have soon was delayed for the moment, but it remains inevitable. Tommy called me after his time at LPCH PICU and shared some observations that really moved me. He has a good heart and is coming to some understanding and insight at 20 that some never obtain. Lauren and I did a mountain drive (history), we played Farkel (history) and skipbo (i skipped round). This was a day begun with joy and uncertainty, and ended the same. Tomorrow will hopefully give me further ideas as to how and when I will confront a lurking demon. I am grateful in the meantime for the time I have to spend in all of this.
