62/65 degrees, 68/71 in Memphis. Area of dental surgery still hurts.
16 years ago today, my Mother passed away. I got a call from my mother on the evening of September 26 and there was just a "gasp" like she was breathing hard. Since it was late when I got the message, I called her back early the next morning and my brother in law called and advised she had passed away during the night. I realize how fast time goes when I realize it has been 16 years since that date.
Been too busy to read the morning papers like I always do and I can feel the loss, much as I feel the loss of my daily walk and bike ride. I will be glad to get back into both.
Sometimes it is difficult to realize some of the daily habits mend their way until you life until you don't have the opportunity to do them during the day.
I expect I am about to live through The "World Without End is Ending" concept again, with a World which seemed unending about to end. That is kind of how I felt when my parents passed away. While I knew they would eventually pass on, I don't think I ever really realized it would happen until it happened. One day it happens and your entire world changes.
Wedding Rehearsal dinner for Aliene's grandson tonight, tomorrow is the wedding. The World Without End starts.
Developed a rash on parts of my body (legs, inside elbows, wrists, stomach area. Don't know if it is an allergy or something else, hoping something that is cured quickly abd easily. Does't itch too much,l but when it does it is maddening.
