and now I am one . . .
On Sunday, January 12th, I lost the love of my life and my best friend. Pete took his last breath in my arms at 11:00 p.m. that night, with his head held close to my chest.
The last eight days have been a blur. I am going to write a little in a journal each day.

Clouds!
After a quick trip to the post office yesterday afternoon, I stopped at Robinson on my way home.

Sunset and hair cut . . .
It is cold here, at least by Florida standards. Fifty degrees when I get up in the morning! And we're lucky if we get up into the 60s for a high. But, this weekend we're getting warmer weather. So yay for that ( Read more... ) -

After Milton . . .
I am allergic to latex and then with the stress of the hurricanes, I have developed a horrible case of the hives! I've actually never had hives before. It has spread to over half my body beginning on my abdomen and spreading down my arms, my back and starting now down the tops of my legs. It doesn't hurt, but itches like crazy and I want to ( Read more... ) -
