blown away...

Aug 23, 2004 22:46

i just learned that one of my friends, Cheri, died today...

in her early 40's her daughter found her in bed, not breathing at 2:30 this afternoon... rescue was called and they tried to do everything possible... but... it wasnt enough...

i actually cannot believe it... i see her children all the time... i see her husband all the time... i just seen her a couple weeks ago and we were talking about how hard her father and brothers are taking their moms death...

her mom died suddenly less than 2 months ago...

my god this is just too hard to take in...

geesh, i see her hubby when he comes into the restaurant... he always tells all his friends that i am his ex-wife... most of them believe him too... so he and i laugh and flirt and i tell him "its" still legal...

i just seen two of her daughters over the weekend...

oh my... it seems like just yesterday that we would all be hanging out at the beach every day with our children... and Cheri loved telling her young son to touch and play with my toes cuz she knew... touching my toes can be an orgasmic kinda thing... and we all laughed...

how many times did we all go camping... in the rain... in the sun... so many of us... all there... laughing and enjoying...

she is the one who gave me my favorite long black satin gown with matching robe...

how many times did she and i laugh so hard over the day she drove my ex-husband over the edge... she had had a fight with her husband and was crying... he asked her what was wrong... my ex and i were separated at the time and he was stalking me... and out of the blue she told him well, if your wife wasnt sleeping with my husband i wouldnt be crying...

oh my gosh... we laughed so many times and so hard about that day... her shocking my ex... and shocking me too, lol... she was only kidding about me sleeping with him...

a couple weeks ago when my daughter couldnt get ahold of me one day and she panicked... for some reason she thought something had happened to me... and today... Cheri's daughter, who is a year older than my daughter, lived my daughters greatest fear... she found her mom... passed away...

this is all too unreal... yet... way too real...
