That Empty Spot

Have you ever wondered if something really existed or was it just in your mind?  Something that seemed to be so real but then one day you wake up and it’s like it never was.  That’s how I kind of feel sometimes.

My new computer has Windows 7 and one of the new features with this operating system is how you can set up your computer’s desktop.  I decided to have mine kind of like a slideshow.  A new picture gets displayed every 10 minutes.  All of the ones I have chosen are of Mari.

Talking from the heart…

Today I sit here thinking about how life can turn out so differently than you could have expected.

Keith and I went to church this morning like we have started to do on a more regular basis since the Sunday before Thanksgiving. We decided to just try Sunday School since I have not been able to handle going to church service at that point. That very first Sunday going to our brand new class I broke down and told everyone about Mari. It is the Sunday before Thanksgiving so you can imagine what the topic is about: What . . . → Click Here To Read More: Talking from the heart…

The days, months, and years to come

I sit here wondering what life has in store for me in the days, months, and years to come.  Just two years ago at this same time, I knew Keith, my husband, and I had a life of taking care of a severely autistic child that within the next few years would more than likely have to be put into some kind of home for her own safety.  She was getting harder and harder to take care of and she kept escaping out of our house.  We knew we did not want to do this but we knew . . . → Click Here To Read More: The days, months, and years to come

To Feel Lucky…

What happens after 16 years of marriage?  Is it still wedded bliss or is it a nightmare you cannot wait to get out of.  Well if you are lucky, it will be as close to wedded bliss as the two of you can be.  What I mean by wedded bliss is not that when you first start going out and everything feels so fresh and new and you just feel so owey goowey with each other or even that first year of marriage where you can tell the couple is newlyweds.  I am talking about how after 16 . . . → Click Here To Read More: To Feel Lucky…

16 Years of Wedded Bliss, Could Anyone Ask For Anything More

It has been interesting how this past week has gone for me.  I started to get really sick towards the end of the Super Bowl on Sunday.  The rest of the week I guess can be best explained as feeling just BLAH.  I feel like I am finally on the mend.

During this time I have implanted myself up on my couch all week.  Then I decided to move all of Mari’s website to a new provider.  My hope is that I will be able to get better exposure to get Mari’s memory out there better.  I want . . . → Click Here To Read More: 16 Years of Wedded Bliss, Could Anyone Ask For Anything More
