Challenging, is how I'd describe the last two weeks although I can't say they were bad weeks, just a collection of days that demanded close to all I had to give and perhaps a little bit more on occasions. I worked through it, difficult though it was, and took comfort where I could; small moments snatched from the turbulence that my days seemed whipped into by the happenings of life.
Taking a moment often seemed wrong, wasteful almost, minutes that could be better spent, however I've learned over time that those tiny moments have a big impact, they're a positive force, especially in days and weeks like I've recently had.

I've not had to weather the storm alone, not totally anyway, as my partner has been around to support me; his work keeps him away at times though and it's at those times I need to work a little harder, fortunately still with his moral support and those blessed moments we speak on the phone that mean so much.
I've made it through, although there's no final resolution; matters will continue, the demands and situations that spin around me endure, minutes and days will be juggled and life continues on regardless; that's where those small but significant moments have their most value though and we're looking forward to some of them this coming weekend; we need them.
We're heading out for dinner on Friday night, just the two of us, and have already vowed not to talk about or discuss anything about the last couple of weeks, the evening will be about us, talking about fun things, laughing, and feeling the togetherness and connection we manage to create in moments like this. The rest of the weekend will be discussed at dinner also, a weekend stolen away from those weighty matters of the last weeks and time spent living. If I get time I might summarize after the weekend.
