My mother has died in the interim. We never expected that. She just learned to ride a motorcycle. She was looking forward to more adventures... guess death is the greatest one of all. I hope she's having fun.
Daughter moved back to Ohio to finish school. An empty bedroom. How odd.
Anniversary would have been today. How long? Mercy I can't even remember. I know it still seems like he should be coming home from work any time now. That I pulled out his favorite winter sweaters to hang in the closet when it was 'officially' autumn and then realized he didn't need them this year. And yet in a lot of ways his being gone has also become 'normal'.
Can't say I like it. Always surprises my friends and relations when I say I would like to date and fall in love and get married again. They think it is better to have the freedom of being single. Guess I am wired differently. I love my freedom...but I want someone to share it with.
More tomorrow...
