3 1/2 months later

I forgot about this blog.  I'm still here.  One day at a time.  Took a trip to NC to visit daughter, Lisa, who relocated from Austin, Tx.  Mountains were beautiful in the fall.  I raked lots of truckloads of leaves here and took them to the country.

I made a quilt of his tshirts and I sleep under it every night.

It's muddy, rainy, darkish winter days now here in KY, but kind of a still peace about it all.

I made some crafts and even did a craft fair for the first time in 40 years.  Was kinda fun.

Sometimes I'm in a fog.  I have paid bills twice or to the wrong billers.  I get my days mixed up.   Sometimes I cry without warning, but I laugh some too.  Spend some time with friends, volunteer organizations, and my dog, Daisy, and my cats, Hobo and Foster, who live with me.

Blake's Memorial Library across the hall with his shrine-like table of memories.

Have the plants there and in the hall for winter.

I sold his bike to one of his friends and park my car in the garage next to my bike.

I just really miss him a lot, but I feel he is with me, too, comforting and encouraging me.

The grandchildren are wonderful.
