Old age has arrived with al...

Today it is cold, with icy rain, seems fitting for the way I feel. I have NO intentions of stepping a foot out of the door today or maybe not tomorrow either. Dealing with my mother's death is a daily effort. I especially hate the mornings when I ...

Another day...

posted over 3 years ago | 1 comment
The days pass one by one and I feel like I am not a part of them somehow. I really don't want to be right now. This Saturday it will be two weeks since my mother's death. I feel as far as grieving I am doing much better than I did when my younger ...
