A room full of women who are surviving as best we can. <br />My last substantial words to my hubby the night he died suddenly and without warning were about a kiss. But he died instead. Hard facts, but at least he knew my desire was still strong after 46 years married. Valentine's is not an easy day. I can and do rejoice when I see all the young lovers. The old ones too. We were on that category. Lovie is going to change a few of my friends lives. Thank You MAM....

I told my wife it was like watching a really good Hallmark movie. The insight of the emotions was truly very realistic.

I am about half way through The Summer's End and I am so happy to just now discover the story line will continue with a new book next year!!!

It circles around it and in larger circles around our entire garden. At times, it lands on one of the flowers. We love watching it. In researching Monarchs I came across your story, above, and it reminded me of a family we know in Santa Barbara. They believe Lady Bugs are connected to the spirit of a relative. Every time they see one - inside their home, they carefully take it outside - all the while thanking their deceased relative for the visitation. Watching "our" Monarch, as it circles - sometimes coming very near to us as we sit on our deck - we feel so connected to it and everything else. We are thankful for its visitation and happy it found its way into our garden - and to our new Milkweed plant.3rdimensionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15247527226567932248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347243279318294019.post-72339847556280220552015-05-28T14:28:35.837-07:002015-05-28T14:28:35.837-07:00Just finished reading "Summer's End"...Just finished reading "Summer's End" I had to reread the previous 2 before I started. I really enjoyed reading all of them consecutively. One thing about "Summer's End" bothered me. Evidently your copy editor missed grammatical errors. In two different places there were subject pronouns used as the objects of prepositional phrases. One was dialog of Mawmaw. She is a very gentile, well bred woman. I'm sure she would never have said, "...for you and I." Young people make that mistake regularly, but those of us who are over 60 are still a stickler for grammar.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347243279318294019.post-70441259119987474202015-05-26T00:25:55.256-07:002015-05-26T00:25:55.256-07:00We hired this event planner after picking a venue,...We hired this <a href="https://eventup.com/" rel="nofollow">event planner</a> after picking a venue, caterer, etc. and she seamlessly took over and managed all of the details for us.

Although the sun is not friendly to me, big hats and long sleeve shirts help me enjoy my love of nature. Its good to be able to see you once again Mary Alice.

My moments of living in the present, slowing down and "grabbing moments" include parks visits, backyard playtime in the sprinkler, digging in the dirt, and swinging long after the time we should have gone in to get ready for dinner/bedtime. Slowing down with them makes me happier and calmer--strangely-- even though the monstrous to-do list looms in the back of my mind.

She broke into spontaneous dance when she heard the music playing through the speakers outside.
