A Saturday Not the Least Bit Ordinary

So hanging out at Dr Aalam's dental office yesterday seemed to have spooked Lisa out big time. Frankly I was surprised he was even working given the directive the CDA sent out that dentists shouldn't be seeing patients unless it was an emergency. Anyway it seemed to finally focus her attention on her own vulnerabilities and the fact that she could easily get sick given her immunocompromised state or so she believes. And so there was a lot of anxiety in her demeanor this morning, whereas she was mostly concerned about keeping her practiced afloat when I saw her last on Thursday night. This morning I was supposed to come over for breakfast and then per our agreement take Johnnie for half the day since she would have normally been working today. This morning she wanted to do nothing more than stay home but asked me if I could hang around the house with Johnnie if I'm going to be there anyway. That one kind of took me by surprise. Doesn't she remember how terrible we were when we spent a great deal of time together? And that it is working now because I have purposely minimized that time we do spend together? But then again she asked more as I favor than as a statement and I actually agreed simply to assuage her anxiety today. Maybe it will change later, but today in the here and now, I think I can manage to spend the bulk of the day with her and Johnnie. And after all, the upshot is that I do get to see Johnnie and play with him for a good potion of the day. Just look at the pic of us together. Dad and son. In these times, I'm gonna rely on pics like these to raise my vibration after all. And so we had breakfast out in the backyard like I hadn't done in almost a couple of years now. And then I even went back home to have lunch while she and Johnnie took a bike ride together. See? They can do what they want to do and I can do what I want to do. This can work. And then I came back later on the afternoon. And spent the rest of the day at Lisa's house. Had dinner there in fact. It was 8 PM by the time I left. I had spent the bulk of the day with Lisa and Johnnie and Johnnie in particular seemed to have a good time actually and even crafted an entire book to chronicle how the day went. I'm posting it here. It says it all. And the day turned out ok.
