I drove Cindy to work this morning. Cindy had arranged for Kate to take her, but I didn't have anything scheduled and we weren't assured of Kate waking up on time to take her. As it turned out, Kate came down and appeared, dressed, with sunglasses to shield her from the morning, standing in the middle of the living room as if she were an object d'art. The heavy frown on her face belied her attitude, and when I left the room to take care of something, I came back to find her lying on the couch.
So, I took Cindy to work on my way to work. We talked softly in my car as we made our way from home to Griffin Tech. The evil of the times was the topic and how we might deal with it. By the time we arrived at the entrance to Griffin Tech, I was somewhat comforted and I told her that we would get through these times. She said she knew. There was a brief moment of comfort when we felt like these times could be endured.
No matter how you structure the partnership of your marriage, it is good to have a partner. Particularly in times like these.
About Me
- TBAYNHAMIII
- I was born in Kentucky, though my parents had been living in Knoxville before my birth. My mother's mother lived across the street from the hospital in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, which was convenient. I moved around quite a bit when I was young, but ended up in Georgia. I like to read and write and love food and drink way too much. I have a funny wife and daughter who has finished her batchelor's degree and is living with her grandmother in North Atlanta and studying advertising. I sometimes wonder what life would have been like if I had not gone to law school. Regrets come and go with the seasons.
