Our host is Gattina. Come join us and tell us what YOU did this past weekend! After all, you never know when you will need an alibi!
***************
My weekend was a bit of a washout! Quite literally! We’ve had over 5 inches of rain, and there are puddles everywhere. Poor Hubby had the Jeep battery die…in the rain…and he had to call me to rescue him.
Because there is nothing we can do outside in all this rain, I have resorted to cooking new things, and preparing three solid meals a day. I guess I do that anyway, but I’ve been taking time, going slowly, and actually amazed myself with my awesomeness! (lol)
I’m still reeling from the fact that is is now October! How did that happen? I feel that as the years go by and I get older, time just flies by me.
I was working on a few things in my closet today, and I sat down and opened a box. It’s not a box I open often. In fact, I think the last time was about 5 years ago. But I sat, and opened it, and went through each item inside. All the pictures, drawings, lockets of hair and hand written notebooks, inside made me feel drawn back in time, and yet, at the same time as though it had all happened to someone else. I cried for a bit, and then I put it all away again.
~Memories~
I rebounded and refused to get lost in my grief, and before I knew it I was making a new recipe for our dinner and listening to some calming music.
What did you all do over the weekend?
Glad you have that box even though you don’t go threw it often. It is important to hold those memories in your heart and sometimes be able to reach out and touch them too! Lots of hugs! Love YOU and Love Katie always!!! Mel
Thinking of you 🙂 Love you!
I never look back in the past and don’t dig out old stuff. I prefer to look into the future ! It must be the rain which puts you in sad mood. We still have summer weather, but apparently from tomorrow on it finishes !
I can not imagine how hard it is to lose a child. It´s just wrong. Having those special items of her, must bring back the feelings you had for her. I hope it brings you some peace to know she is in a better place. ((HUGS))!
