While it is never easy to lose a beloved feathered/furry family member. But it makes it especially harder at a time when there should be so much joy and happiness. So sorry

We lost my grandmother in Feb, I know my mother is going through the same thing!! One really cool things tho, was, the mother's dress my mom wore to my wedding, was a dress HER mother wore in the 50's, my mom lost enough weight to wear it! I thought that was a lovely tribute, I also had a handkerchief that my grandmother had, wrapped around my bouquet. It's tough, but we must plow through the grief, remember the good times, and know they are safe and in a better place! My grandmother was Polish, and I remember a lot of good times at Easter, so, this last Easter, tho she had only been gone a short time, I pulled out some polish recipes and made them to honor her. Our love of cooking was something I will always remember!! Blessings to you and yours!!!
PS...gotta love the 60's!!!!

It went better than I expected. We had fun remembering various outfits and hats mother wore. Lisa ended up wearing a pair of high heeled, metallic gold, ankle boots from the sixties all day.

Now there's something to hold on to!


(The shoes and the memories both)

X2 Each and everyone is different, and the pain can go deep, or deeply right through you.

My mother died unexpectedly fifteen years ago this morning. Those of us who were living in Western Washington may recognize the date as that of the 1996 Ice Storm, the worst weather I've ever experienced (the Columbus Day storm was terrifying, but then it was over; the ice and snow held on for over a week). I have had time to learn that lesson over and over.
