A quiet day. Lots of family on my mind. Some good thoughts, some not so good. Some family I miss dearly & some I am still terrified of. We used to go to Mom's for sloppy joes or BBQ burgers, potato salad, & pie. Nothing fancy but I sure miss those times. In my FB memories I saw some posts that people I no longer chat with had commented on. That made me sad. One was a distant relative who is now gone. She was a sweetie. Life changes whether we want it to or not.
Not much happened today. Strong winds again. They kept changing the time when they would quit. But I think it is less now. Strong storms are building up but south and east of here. But later we have strong storms forecast. And tomorrow. And wednesday. And colder. That is good as is the rain.
I swore I had flowers left over from last year but I was wrong. No flowers to put on graves. I have ordered some & will make the graves look good. Many have permanent vases. I put a head stone on my mom's twin sister who was born dead. No one had ever marked it. Mom & I had a relative who promised to do it if we gave him something. He failed but I did not. We waited years. I found a nice vase with a heart on it & a cross over the heart. Will be nice. A shame she was forgotten for so many years.
I slept last night without pain. Finally! It was nice. I was lazy today. Like every other day.
Photos today are a mix of things. I added some family photos. Two are the 3 most important women in my life after my grandmother. And one of my parents. The 3 women are my Aunt Thelma, Aunt Marth, & Mom. Mom was the oldest. Well her twin was. The were born on different days around midnight. I miss them so much. Aunt Marth & I had tv shows we both watched. As soon as they were over she & I were rapidly emailing each other comparing what we had seen & what we thought! Fun times! The white flowers is a photo my grandson took I borrowed it.
