Sheesh, Feb already seems a blur. I guess the most unusual thing I did is go to Dallas for a long weekend with SO. We spent four days hanging out in the Bishop Arts district in a cute little AirBnB and had a pretty good time.
Oh and my brother called me. Sorry, but I love to write/say that. I'm like a newlywed who keeps saying "My husband ..." but with me it's my brother. Anyway, he called me on the anniversary of our mother's death. No translator this time, but we bumbled along. I told E that it was surprising (and enormously gratifying) to me that he seemed to want to actually have a relationship with me, and E's response was that he's probably felt as lonely/alone as I have - never knew his father, mother gone for 14 years, no other blood family. His wife is one of like 12 kids, and he has had no one. So yeah. Apparently I actually have a brother now and not just a long lost relative.
