Good Morning .....I am only a bird in a cage ; well sometimes it feels just like that....I am waiting for sunshine and a new day to go out and about...I hope....it is sad around here as we lost one of our ladies unexpectedly; sad, a lovely lady, a friend, one who shared time and stories with us. She was a table mate and we will miss her. Part of the trouble in living in a senior housing unit is that you become family and there is nothing to prepare you for the loss of a friend. Doris was tall, stately, smiling eyes and had a tale to tell and often shared them with us. She was a walking friend and many a day we would walk to the corner and back for exercise. She had a wonderful sense of humor and found reasons to make us laugh out loud. It is hard to accept as she had not been ill and if she had any complaints she kept them to herself. So when you go to light a candle, keep her in mind and help light her way into the Garden Gate!!!
It is quiet outside this morning, cars all in and parked for the day. The blinds are open in two of the hospital windows but the others are closed tight and folks are still snoozing. There is no breeze at all, not a leaf stirring. The parked trucks and cars are parked on 'my' side this morning so I see the front end of the cars rather than the back end for a change...smile...all in the best of shape and more white ones than not; a few light grey and one is a small truck. All in great shape, well taken care of.
So...that is it for this morning. I am off to pack a bag for a trip to San Francisco to attend granddaughter Erin's wedding, so if you do not hear from me, know I am off having a great time.
Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU......take good care of you and find reasons to laugh out loud. Love and Hugs.
