I truly have the best support in the whole world. I get phone calls, and messages and visits and comments on the blog here. It would be a pretty sad world if all of you weren't so caring and awesome.
Today I got a call from Bill's nephew, Jeff. He is coming over for coffee tomorrow!! I am really looking forward to his visit. Bill loved his family to pieces but he just wasn't a good 'visitor'. With anybody. I tried many times to get him to arrange visits with his family and friends but he just wouldn't. I thought about this a lot and never really figured it out. He always enjoyed his visits with people but he just wouldn't initiate any of it. And I wouldn't force him. I watched my mom insist that her husband Bob do all sorts of things he just didn't want to and I made the decision to never do that to Bill. But I feel he missed out on a lot. So I am truly appreciative that Jeff is making the effort to come all the way out here to see us.
The last couple of days have been pretty low key and uneventful. I am slowly working through boxes and piles of stuff, sorting and throwing and packing. My goal is March. By March I will have regulated my house to the point where it will be easy to move. hahahaha…I made a funny.
My cousin Dorothy phoned today and invited me out to her daughter's place on Sunday. Its weird being able to just get up and go somewhere. Bill just simply wasn't social and I can count on one hand the number of times we simply got invited somewhere and actually went. I am kind of excited! Its been a long long time since I was able to just go socialize!
Anyway, I am off to bed now. But first I think I shall have me a baloney sammich. Mmmm….mushy white bread and mystery meat. TTYL
