new beginnings

 You know me, I don't let many people in. But I was very lucky to find a friend in a co-worker, her name is Cheyenne; she and her husband Kyle are about to become parents. Lol, real soon as in sometime tomorrow! They are having a little girl and her name is Abigail. 

I was even thinking about making her a fleece blanket like you taught me, another way to remind myself that life goes on and I can keep you always in my heart.

Oh Brother!

 hey dearest,

busy week so far, cleaning and getting ready for my brothers visit for Thanksgiving! We haven't had Thanksgiving together since 1999! He and I went to Key West to help mom and pops move into their new rental house! Sadly during that trip I found out I was losing my job...so much fun NOT, strangely it's all worked out almost perfectly.

Actually spent some time at my storage unit, I have so much to do! Yike!! I keep thinking about all the things I had hauled away as trash, the things I just had to leave in the house and then all the clothes, books and other bits and pieces I have in storage...for just under 900 square feet of house I had a lot!

So, tomorrow I'll drive to Tampa Airport, 37 miles one way in traffic...his flight comes in around 6:30. Mom is coming with me and she figures we need to leave around 4;30 due to traffic, yes, remember those Fridays calling me as I was driving from St. Petersburg to Lakeland! I'm so glad I don't have to make that trip anymore especially since I don't have you to talk to on Fridays and Sundays (trip back), I miss that so much. I remember our last Sunday call, you told me about making the flowers for your wedding and when I got home you'd sent me pictures.

not typing when I'm upset...

sorry dearest angel,

I've had a couple of rough weeks and didn't want to get on my soap box and spout of angry words even just to vent. I know I can hear you, "what are friends for??" I should have been talking to you. 

I can still hear your voice...

Not that I need to remind myself, but you were the best sister I never knew I wanted...

I promise to not stop writing just because I'm frustrated or upset.
