Art Museum

A lot has happened to me in the last few days.  I lost a longtime friendship.  I reconnected with an old and dear friend of mine.  I tried to get more sleep, to look ahead.

Today we went to the Springville Art Museum.  Who new that a building so beautiful was right under my nose this whole time.  I took some pics, of course.  I especially loved seeing my boys exploring the Garden of Sculptures.  Really beautiful, the way I feel about my children.










I'm proud of these guys :)  They challenge me.  They also bring sunshine and hope to all my days.

A Quiet Pain

The manilla envelope came in the mail while I was at work today.  It was nothing unexpected, just the judge's signature on my divorce decree.  A notice that my marriage to Ray is legally over.  I am relieved in an odd way, and glad to be on this side of things, instead of where I was 6 months ago.  Still, there is a quiet pain in my heart.  I think it will be there always.  Probably take it's place alongside the other chronic bits of sadness inside me.  I suspect that I will cry myself to sleep tonight.  I do a lot of that.
