Sixty-one

 Peggy,

     She is gone, for a week. Conference. Am I am falling. We can video chat, but I just can't let her know that way. I know. But the feeling of it being cheating, not sincere maybe, I don't know, something like that, makes me hesitate, then just not say anything, still at the stage of not wanting to dump, reveal my garbage, on to her having a nice time. Well, by the time she finishes telling me about how much she is learning and enjoying it, it's time to hang up. So...

     I understand not wanting another kid. I understand wanting another kid. So, I understand what a difficult decision she has to make. Made harder by time. You know. She knows. It will turn out fine. You take a step, then you take a step, keep going until get through to the comfort. I not very good at advice.
