Hi Maggie,
Meeting the plastic surgeon, buying supplies - it all seems like it's happening too fast. Yet I acknowledge your comment about two months being too long. Time can be a bit schizophrenic. How are you doing? How is your husband doing?
There was a story in the Bible about Abraham, maybe, telling his wife to sleep with Pharoah, maybe. And in school, Sister told us it was not a sin for the woman. She was simply being obedient. And I remember being told that Dad was God's voice in the family. So we have sacred contracts with each other, but religion changes it, makes it something different.
I was thinking about the sinless woman, and it seems that maybe it's not that she was sinless, but that she was a commodity. And that truth is hidden in religion.
And as I write, it is almost midnight, almost Father's Day. I really don't celebrate the Hallmark holidays. But I have an especially hard time with Father's Day. I have a hard time thinking back with nostalgia or joy. The commercials just make me uncomfortable.
Anyway, I am exhausted. I went dancing tonight - contra!!
Hope you are relaxed and resting.
Love from Clare
