Aart, I am so sorry. I know time can sometimes dull the pain, but it never goes away.

Thanks everyone.
After 9 years the grief has ebbed, tho it can come down hard on any given day and not necessarily on the notable anniversaries.

They all do, all the deaths, come tumbling out when a new one occurs.
The older you get the more there are lurking.

Gorgeous day! 70°-30%. Hot enough in the sun to sweat, humidity low enough to dry fast.
Got some stuff done afternap; mowed a bit, swept and scraped parts of coop and chick gear, tidied up some other stuff. Errands run this morning.
Doesn't take me much to feel accomplished...and I needed some distraction today.

I’m sorry! Such a beautiful boy!

Such a beautiful boy!

He was, until midteens when the alcohol and drugs started to wreak their havoc.
They finally got him with what we think was a hot shot.
