My son is sick

The day started slow because we got to sleep in.  My son is sick.  It isn't really bad but he is very stuffed up and just doesn't feel all that great.  I worked some today and then stayed home.  Nathan being sick helped me slow down and enjoy the beautiful sunny day outside.  I love days where the sky is so blue and I can see the outlines of the mountains with the frosting of snow on them.  I am more impacted by the weather than I want to admit.  There are more grays than I like in North Idaho.  I helped facilitate a group this afternoon for people with  a dual diagnosis of substance abuse and mental health issues.  One woman had a mental break down a couple of months ago and is struggling to find balance again.  She is feeling kind of shaky which makes sense.  A couple of women have dropped out of the group because they started to drink again.  This isn't a 12 step group but we ask that you be sober when you come to group.  There are about 10-12 people that come each week.  I am ready to get out of the mental health field but I am humbled by the challenges that people have to work with.  People are scared about all of the cuts that might take place in mental health.  It is a weird time to be in social services.  How bad is it going to get?
