Cry Day.
Hi y'all. Well, today I haven't been able to do a thing but cry. First, we only have two more church services, after the one we had today, and then a six month gap, Gosh, I'll miss the hell out of everyone, Bro Paul in particular. So, today I sang my last special, as it's Charles's turn next week. Also today, we were fixing to say goodbye to our beloved Bo cat. We are giving him up early, in case he runs away, so that his new family can come back and fetch him, and we'll still be here to make sure he doesn't starve meantime.
Unfortunately, there was a Tornado watch this morning, and the worst wind, rain and thunder I've ever experienced, so no Lawhaws at church, so they're coming tomorrow, so we have to get psyched up all over again. I know letting him go is the only thing, it has to be done, but I am just heartbroken. I never knew such a quiet gentle presence, who won't stay inside the house, even on the wildest nights, for more than a few minutes to love up on us, could weave his way so deep into my heart.
Well, at least one thing that was making me truly sad has been sorted, maybe sometimes it does pay, carefully, to speak out, I could have been spared a lot of heartache.
Charles is even more up and down than me today, he's asleep now, I hope, but he's been playing at the church for years and years, and as much as he wants to go where I am, he's going to miss it worse than I do! Anyway, let's just say very heavy heavy rain, rain, and more rain over Monroe today! But feeling at peace right now.
So I shall throw you all huge hugs, a wave and a smile, and depart for my yawning bed. See y'all!
