Today was the day.


Today was sooner rather than later.






“Well where were you then?”



He hugged me tight and we laughed together.

  1. For Judy, my constant inspiration, from your friend Ellen.

    Memories…so selective.
    We don’t choose what persists
    And what fades into oblivion.
    What prompts a reminder?
    A song, a smell, a gesture, a picture, a story
    Can bring back a memory so vivid.
    Insistently collect the sparks that inspire them,
    The memories of simpler times.

    • Not the worst that could happen, Jean. I was expecting it, and he did eventually think of my name. And at least he didn’t call me “the wife’ which, a you know, I hate. ❤


  2. It is tough, reinforces what you already know. You’re so good at turning it into a “game” that he won, both of you with your shared sense of humor. How lucky he is to have you Judy!


  3. You did a good job turning this situation, tough as it must have been, into another interesting read. I admire you, but then I always have.


  4. Even knowing the time would come it still takes you a bit by surprise. Glad to see you made a game of it and got the twinkle in Peter’s eye and a big hug. You are so good at making lemonade out of lemons.


  5. ✨Only in the darkness can you see the stars. How lucky we are to have you guiding us through this heartbreaking journey 💕💫


  6. Once again, thank you for sharing. I suspect that same day will come very soon for my Mom, as she recently asked me, “Now who is your father?” It stings even though you think you’re prepared. Thinking of you.
