Besides...

Besides my mother developing a fistula and, consequently, leaking feces from her grafted area, and undergoing yet another surgery to repair this recent hiccup, and 

besides Drew's trip to the ER for severe abdomen do to what turned out to be a bladder infection (in addition to the sinus infection and ear infection that she was already enduring), and

besides Roy getting completely prepped for surgery on his knee only to have it fall through at the very last minute due to an emergency with another patient, and 

besides my boss, Micah, giving notice that he will be leaving the law firm so now it will be only me and Lee, and 

besides not receiving my W-2 form until today because the stupid accountants don't have their shit together, and 

besides the kids rough-housing around and falling on one of the laptops semi-breaking it, and 

besides some idiot thief breaking out the window in our Jeep to steal a bag containing a week's worth of my mother's mail - 

April has been really great so far!




What is "bad" or "good", "worse" or "better"? It's all about "State of Mind".  These are all just occurrences. They are not "good" or "bad" until my mind has labeled it that way. But what then when my mind does not label it at all?
