Long time, No Blog

Odd to look at my own blog and to actually see how long it has been since my last blog entry. Life seemed so normal until the night of February 28th and that is when our world turned upside down. I’ve actually grown to hate late night phone calls as they usually mean something is wrong, and for that night it was that case exactly. The weeks, days, hours, and minutes that followed were very unreal and at times it’s hard to realize that it actually did happen and to know that this world is minus your own Mother. Many things have become very odd,,,knowing that as of now both of my parents are gone, I did not get a phone call from my Mom on my Birthday, I can’t share with her about my trip to Texas to see her sisters and all of the family that is there, and most of all, there will be no call to her on Mothers day.

As I go about I sometimes feel my Mom kind of got a bum deal as she lived a very healthy and active life. I think most of us thought she’d out live all of us. So now when I’m out and about and I see older people it now kind of make me a bit sad knowing that I did not get to see my parent’s reach that true Golden age, and man,,,My Mom looked Great for her age too!

Now I have all of this stuff bottled up and so many things to put down to help me process all of this. I had many thoughts race threw my mind, I’ve had some very special moments with people during this time, and,,,yes,,,we even took time to have ourselves a little adventure and to make out way to Texas and re-discover a very special side of my Family’s history. I know have my own meaning to the musical line—”Deep in the Heart of Texas”.

I’ll be back very soon…
