Well for the last two days John & I have had our moments. Sudden and unexplained sadness comes over us and we break down. Our dear friend Irene says that it's the anticipation of the upcoming holiday and she is so right. Right now John is making a list of things that we need to buy for tomorrow, Thanksgiving. If my Mom knew that we waited less than 24 hours to make a list, let alone shop she would hang us. Oh, and if she knew that we waited till last night to get the turkey she would scream. We took out Mom's pink book (she used this to make all of her holiday shopping lists and menus) and what do we find...the Easter menu. Sad...but glad to have and a list that we will never throw away.
What we have learned over the past week...We can not listen to Christmas music...the slow stuff...not yet...makes us cry.
I know that we will get through tomorrow...we may have our moments...but it's okay. Okay to miss her...okay to laugh....and, okay to cry.
