I’ve been hemming and hawing at a post for the end of 2009/beginning of 2010 since, well…the last week of 2009. 2009 sucked balls. 2008 sucked balls and if I have to totally honest with myself, the entire decade of aughts sucked balls. But, who wants to read a post about sucking balls? [...]
Reprinted from my Live Journal, as dated December 20, 2008. More thoughts at the end of the post.
Pasta what?
Pusties? Pasties? Do you mean pastries? What are you talking about?
This was my end of a conversation I had with Lisa 5+ years ago when I went to her home to help her do [...]
With Halloween being hallowed a full month ago, and the regrets of stuffing ourselves full of…well, stuffing (and turkey and gravy and mashed potatoes and pie…and…and…) have come and gone, it seems the full steam of Christmas is upon us.
Only, I’m not ready just yet. I’d like a pause button. Or maybe [...]
The 10th in the series Letters to Lisa. I’ve been quite melancholy today, so I thought this particular letter would be a good one to share. It’s more on the humorous side and definitely a bit on the TMI side of things. But you know, she and I shared it all, so why [...]
I’m sad I feel like I spent so much time saying, “she never gets to KNOW us,” that I just might have been the one missing the mark. She was steely, stubborn, strong and bright.
Exactly what any woman wishes to be. [...]
The eighth in the Letters to Lisa series.
Lisa-
God, I want to talk to you in person so damned desperately. So.damned.desperately. So much is going on and I want to sit over a plate of spinach & artichoke dip and tell you. I want to see your eyeballs pop out of your [...]
The seventh in the Letters to Lisa series of posts. For new readers, Abby and Ethan are my children. Nathan is Abby’s sweetheart and an integral part of our family.
Lisa-
Wow! Two weeks since I’ve written! I’d like to say it’s because all is awesome, but honestly, I’m finding myself more debilitated. Our fridge [...]
The sixth in the Letters to Lisa series of posts. My Aunt Betty, who also died from complications of diabetes, and Lisa have a connection?? Aunt Betty passed 37 years ago and, of course, Lisa had never met her…until now.
Lisa-
Okay, now I’m just confused. I take it you’ve met my Aunt Betty? [...]
The fifth in the Letters to Lisa series of posts.
Lisa-
It’s amazing the things you learn about the heart of others when you share your own heart with them. I finally spilled about your death to any friends/family on myspace that hadn’t possibly heard already. Announcing more, since few or none of them knew you, [...]
The fourth in the Letters to Lisa series of posts. Cast of characters include Jan, her sister-in-law, Em is a niece and Brian, Jon and Lee are nephews.
Lisa -
Were you there? Did you help? Jan had her baby yesterday! He is a nice sized boy and your mom says everyone is well.
What a bittersweet time [...]
