Merry Christmas, my Appleberry Blintz!
When will people learn?!
Apoacalypse-schmocalypse - when it happens - it happens, and I for one do
not fear it. Though there might be
frightening things that go on during it, I will know that soon only goodness and
light will surround us.
I had hoped to get up Chicago way
this last fall, but alas alack ‘twas not meant to be. I hope the coming year brings it to
pass. Or a Homecoming in Cedar
Rapids! That might be fun, huh? If we start planning and saving our pennies
we can make it happen.
There are times when I am not on
fb much, but have been trying to peek in every now and again because it is a
great way to keep in touch. I’ve also
been blogging, some I share between sites, some I keep only on my blog; it’s
mostly a place where I note what I’m doing for me – to make me a better person
as a whole – peeling off the layers to find who I used to be – I know I’ll
never be her again, but I needed a “do over” and this is my way of
accomplishing that.
You will always have a Styrofoam covered
place in my heart, I love you dearly and miss you. Did you see the song I dedicated to you and
our other friends (Carol King’s, Now and
Forever)? When I think of that song
I remember you, Missy, Dennis, Sir Thomas, Ashley, Betz…. I listen to it intentionally every once in a
while to see what memories it conjures, but I always…always see the two of us cutting Styrofoam sheets, your arm
band after Mr. John Lennon died, our massage lesson in the black box – that was
an odd class, never knew what Prof Puf was going to come up with!
Listen to Now and Forever, the words express so well what I feel for you!
I miss the tears,
I miss the laughter,
I
miss the day we met and all that followed after.
It
is because I can feel things like this that I know there is God.
Brightest
Blessings,
~LM
