The Ciggies Are Back

My mom called this morning. I was surprised that she did not call me right after my sister's announcement. I don't think she took it that well. I had mentioned to Adriana, that maybe she felt what I did---we are not there with her, to watch her belly expand and to experience the pregnancy in full.

Mom told me she was about to leave on vacation, then I heard her inhaling. I asked her what that was, knowing perfectly well she is back to smoking... She mentioned something about having a rough time lately, and when I asked what was going on, she said she's only smoking two cigarettes a day, and then she changed the subject.

I don't want to push it. My guess is, either therapy (newly started) is bringing into the surface a lot of burried feelings and memories, or things with Gil* have gone back to the same ol' crap (or it could be both).

* Must make clear that Gil is not the other G, which I have mentioned in a very fond way...Two different people!!!!
