Following yesterday’s bad news, I’m feeling a bit low at present. Doing all you can to ensure your kids (no matter their age) are happy is a massive responsibility and driving force of being a parent, so until the current situation around my son’s future job situation is resolved I expect that I’ll likely be unhappy to some degree.
At present, there is a lot of things that are unknown, especially because it is the weekend, and I really don’t like uncertainty. Once a plan is in place to get things back on track – and most importantly of all, my son is happy – I think I’ll start to feel better. Although I’m somewhat shell-shocked about it all, I’m positive for his future and will continue to reassure him that everything will turn out ok, because I’m certain it will.
I’ll still hopefully post here each day, but there may be pictures only more often than not. As much as I love photography, it’s importance to me is as nothing compared to the welfare of my children, and it feels difficult to give it much attention right now.
In an attempt to publish something bright and cheerful, here’s a colourful red classic Cadillac.

This can certainly cheer you up – even more when out in the open road in one! I had a friend who had one – not red – and we were in it, stuck in a famous Los Angeles traffic jam on the 405 freeway at 1 in the morning, under the full moon, top down. We sang songs and howled at the moon, and a lot of people joined in!
Meanwhile, I am sure your son will move ahead. I am glad you are there with him for support. It is hard to see our kids unhappy, and you, too, but it is so good to know you are there for him. A lot of kids are not that lucky!

Thanks for your kind words -N-, I am grateful for them.
And that sounds like a happy memory with the car. 🙂
