It is a most beautiful 51 degrees this morning. As I was getting dressed, I wondered how long I would sleep if I didn’t have to get up to take care of the dogs, to take meds on a schedule, to pack boxes, to find a mover, to do a change of address, to refill my phone plan. Chris (my son) is here helping me. I always sleep more soundly when he is here. It’s amazing the difference a person makes. My person, the one I laid beside, and I could feel the tension drain out of me, has been missing from my life for almost 5 years. It’s the little things I cherish – the things he did – making my coffee with cocoa, cleaning my eyeglasses (I can never get them as clean as he did), holding doors for me, moving furniture while I vacuumed, making plans, sitting in silence, cooking for me. Many of you are missing your person too. I send you light and love and the hope that you cherish the memories as they come to you. I Love You.

     I opened the door at 5:15 this morning to let the dogs out and was greeted, not by the morning sounds of birds singing but by the generator which has been running since the storm yesterday. It is a blessing to have lights and water and a fan.

I Love You

     Bruce and I used to talk about how different our lives would have been had we never met. There is a plan. So many things must happen for two people to be in the same place at the same time, to look up, to look around, to speak to a stranger. There is so much more directing our lives to get us where we need to be.
