Waiting, waiting

Monday, 24th July 2006

The die is cast, the course is set, the shot is loaded. All we can do now is sit on our hands and wait for something to happen.

Now is when the doubt sets in. What if the thieves aren't up to thieving anymore? What if they've long since taken every small piece of equipment they need and have moved on to some nefarious second stage of their plot, whatever it may be? Maybe we're simply too late. Maybe the AQSYS system will fail us. Maybe we've all spent a little too much time sitting in the sun and it cooked our brains. All we can do is wait and see what happens, if anything happens.

I'm trying to stifle those little voices by focusing more on my family. Poor Fleming must think I'm having an affair, with all of my creeping off in the evenings! And the children have all started to misbehave; bedtime has become an all-out brawl, and it just can't go on like this. So all through the weekend I did my best to push the Third Power and isotopes tags clean out of my head and do right by the ones who need me most.

It's been a busy time; we had a few all-out wrestling matches, a finger-painting contest, some very creative cookery, games of Pyramid with some extremely alternate rules, long and elaborate story-times... You know, I've been spending nearly as much actual time with my three little ones all along, but I think I hadn't been really there when I was with them, and they must have missed that. I think I missed it, too. But how in the world do you weigh being a good mother against saving the world?

After the children were all asleep at night, Fleming and I snuggled up together to watch old vids, the way we used to when we were first married. Though I really didn't watch them very carefully. I felt Fleming's arm warm around me, and all I could do was ache for the time when that was all I ever needed to feel perfectly safe.
