Anything...but, mine.

Found my way, to the rabbit hole, today.

: )

I, can't begin...to tell you...how difficult, it is.

It takes....Every Bit....of Gut, for me...to go, there.

Seeing Geri's...and Peg's....'things', Michael....has brought, over the last few months, 

is....overwhelming.

I'm Grateful...

<3

but, so...very....heavyhearted.

: (

I started going through boxes, 

began...with the small...stuff.

Jewelry.

Oh...my.

The precious things.

The 'things'...that Geri, held...closest to her.

Michael, said... "Ma, never had much, so...I'm sure, there's nothing valuable."

: (

I, knew...Geri.

<3

I, Knew...her, in a different way.

<3

She...didn't keep things, because they had monetary value.

Geri, kept things...because they were 'Priceless'...to her.

<3 <3 <3 

I, get....that. : )

So...going through her 'precious'....memories, has been a bit...

Overwhelming.

I found several...Beautiful, Beautiful...pieces, that will go back, to Michael.

<3

I, know...the Grandchildren...will love, to have them.

There are several...Gold pieces, that the Family....needs to have.

<3 <3 <3 

I...knew Geri, differently, than her Family.

I...explained...to Michael, "People are multifaceted.

You knew one facet. I, knew...one, too. "

Totally....different.

The Facet, I knew...was of an Amazing....Creative, Woman.

A Traveler. A...Wanderer.

a...

'Free Spirit'.

<3 <3 <3 

A 'Gypsy'...maybe, with a Lot...of Class.

; )

She, was so soft, and gentle....but, Hard, as Nails.

: )

<3

The Stories...she shared with me, over the years...are Priceless.

<3 <3 <3 

I, admired...her, so.

<3

Seems, the world...is upside down, most...days.

Seeing the rabbit hole, in such Chaos....seems, Normal.

I'll hang on, to that.

<3 

Love....to Ya.

{Geri, would've understood...The Last Waltz.  <3
We, had that...in common. : ) <3
She lost her Soul Mate, long....ago, too. <3  }
