Gone

Unfortunately, there was a death in my family yesterday. It was a long time coming but extremely sad, nonetheless. It was someone I loved....adored! Growing up she was the coolest person in the world to me and I LOVED visiting and would cry when I had to leave. She was the best.

Well....I now feel like I have an angel watching over me (growing up people would say I resembled her and I took it as a compliment.....like when someone told me years ago that I resembled Lucille Ball - the YOUNG Lucille). I know this sounds nuts but I believe it to be true. How else would I have been walking my dog yesterday and a fella approached me, struck up a conversation and asked for my phone number? This NEVER happens to me (unless you remember Danny Cologne - alias - oh so many years ago).

Anyway....we all mourn and grieve in our own way. I'm not a big talker about my emotions until some time has passed and then all I want to do is talk. But for now I just keep it close to the heart. But when I have my secret chats and inner dialogues I now know she'll be watching over me from above while trying to push the hair out of my eyes and smiling.

Oh....and if this doesn't get me married within a year or two then nothing else will.

I raise this pork rind to you.
