Although the morning is chilly, I couldn´t be happier.
For months now Ihave waken up every day thinking about my daughter Claudia. When I get up I forget when I´m doing my chores. But to get up in mourning every day is terrible.
Now this has ended. And today I called Dixie early in the morning to tell her my good news. She was very happy and told me that she had been praying for this to happen.
Rodrigo, Claudia´s now BF, helped Dixie get more money from the insurance company when she was run over. He is a lawyer and a long time ago he was also Claudia´s BF for a while.
I met him the last time when Claudia invited me for coffee for my last birthday. It was at a good coffee shop and he came in. Claudia invited him to our table and I thanked him for what he had done for Dixie (he charged her a negligible amount of money). He then answered me that he really had done it for Claudia.
When I told Dixie that Rodrigo and Claudia were together, she said that finally she could invite us (Claudia, Rodrigo and I) to her house for dinner.
I talked with Dixie when she was in the way to the airport. Andrés will be arriving in one hour or maybe less.
So it is all good news here. I don´t mind today that the news on TV are always bad. Today I don´t care. Se you.

Here every day you hear in the news people getting killed. It sounds like the Far West.

@TheHorse Now people are killed, drawn and quartered every day. And found in suitcases. JEEEZZZ!!! That´s why I stay home. I dread go out alone in what used to be a nice neighborhood.

@marguicha The Old American West is "romanticized." People were not shooting each other in the streets all the time.

Nice to be invited. I don't watch the news. Sometimes on YT but not that often.

@marguicha ........That's what I'd name it too. I got out of the habit of watching it. I get so triggered by much of it and then I am sick for days. All those poor people without homes and all of the meanness and ugliness in the world. I just can't bring myself to watch it.

I watch news every day. Local and international. In English that is called "being a glutton for punishment"

I told my news to Dixie and to Leticia. Leticia was elated too. She had met Rodrigo years ago when she was working at Claudia´s, raising my grandson Vicente. She liked him very much.

@marguicha I hope that both your daughters have found the right man. I am glad that Rodrigo is someone you know and have always liked.

@LadyDuck Tania just called me and told me that she had decided that the man she had met was just going to have to be on a friend´s situation. It seems that he wanted too much of her and she is used to her independence.

You’ve basically been through a year of pure hell, missing your girl. That would be so very hard! I’m so glad that things are better and that it seems your Claudia woke up to realize that she had a wonderful mother who loves her very much. I know you are just so happy that she reached out! And I am so very happy for you.

I don´t know if the pill that the doctors gave me lessened my trembling hands or that it was Claudia´s call.

@MarieCoyle I hope so. I am sure that the evil man that was Claudia´s last partner destroyed her in some sense. I am keeping my fingers crossed that Rodrigo will heal her.

I don´t think that they will get married. They are too old for that. But that does not matter. Happiness does.

@grenery8 I liked him a bit over 35 years ago, when they first started to date. I hope it works now.

It is a blessing when things are good for our children.

I always liked Rodrigo for Claudia. But when they were first dating, his main interest was politics and getting Pinochet out. I think that Claudia did not choose him then in part because of that. It was too dangerous.

She called me as if we had seen each other yesterday. I was in shock but did not mention anything, just followed her lead.
