Awake Nurse called in.  She’s home now and trying to go back to sleep.   Me, after some espresso.  She requests I stay and I do.. . always do what my Queen orders.  Window open, no light.  Meditative, investing scene.  First of such.  We joke… she calls me stubborn after she texts me to go back to bed.

Fearing this might keep her up,  I close it, try to sleep.

08:30.  Tired but the latte is helping.  Nurse at work, me driving her there after getting us both something at Peet’s.  The Mental Health to this – WORK.  Helping her however she needs.  And honestly, she doesn’t need.  She is strong and self-scribing, but I’m here and offer and she accepts with smiles and kisses and vocal gratitude.  All of this, who and what we are.  Where we’re going, together.
