At the museum today this little three year old girl stepped off the elevator, turned around and said, β€œThank you elevator!” It was beyond cute!!!

Today would have been our 25th anniversary. The flowers are the last anniversary gift he gave me. Hug your loved ones. Tell funny stories to each other.

How fucked up is it that in the US you can get six weeks off PTO after having a hysterectomy but zero PTO for having a baby?!

I spent about $70 at the Vancouver Public Library but I think my little Canadian Tire bucket is my favorite travel gift!

I am so sorry. My husband passed two years ago suddenly. Give yourself lots of time and grace. Create a goal of one thing to do that day. It helps. Walks are great exercise and a way to grieve by yourself. Sending lots of love and support!!!

Phoebe says, β€œgirls are weird but boys are disgusting.” I believe her logic is sound.

Two years since I lost my husband. LOTR was his favorite so I’ve been doing a rewatch every year on his birthday.

I pulled in to the parking garage at work. Kept hitting my garage door opener and getting frustrated that it wasn’t working. I need to go back to bed.

Last night at graduation a speaker said, β€œI’m running a race I didn’t sign up for.” I couldn’t have described my grief and being a widow any better.

My BIL was born on a military base in Japan. My FIL was stationed over there. BIL went to the SSA to get a new card. H
Found out he was flagged & not considered a citizen. Thankfully he had his passport and papers and they fixed it. Check your citizenship, Americans. You might not be one anymore!

Great start to a Monday morning… Boil the water in the kettle. Pour it into the mug. Brew for 5 minutes. Realized I never put the tea in the basket. Now starting over…
