Snow...Day.

Put Christmas, away...Sunday, and Monday.

Started cleaning....today,

getting reacquainted...with Old...Friends.

Friends, I hadn't touched...for a long, long...time.

; )

With every piece, memories...flooded my soul.

<3

 Put the Christmas Gift...John had Beautifully...created, for me...

in an Old...Toy Truck, with a bunch...of the hand cut, metal shavings, from the floor, of John's Shop.

He was going to sweep them up, and...pitch them.

: (

They...are Pieces of Art, as much...as the Finished Pieces.

<3 <3 <3 

So many...of the pieces, that've found their way...into our Home...

are Gifts, from...some of the Most....Wonderful People.

<3 <3 <3 

Treasures.

 

{askin' for a Friend. ; ) : ) : ) }

oh...my.

<3 <3 <3 

I remember...saying nearly these exact words, to John...after a horrible, first time {and last.}

 visit, with an oncologist, about a month, before John...left us. 

He...was an ass.

When 'Hope'...is all you have left, it takes a real...son of a bitch, to try to steal that from you.

Told the oncologist as much, that day.

I, put him...on his heels, with 'words'...the same way, he'd put us, on ours.

I, don't think...John, could ever get over, what that man...said, to him...that day, no matter, how hard...I tried to convince him, otherwise.

Hope...is Everything.

Hope Thieves...

Be Damned.

Gonna get everything...put in it's place...tomorrow.

: )

It was a 'Snow Day', today.

<3

I've always...loved them.

Somehow, they give permission, to goof off, and...be a little lazy.

; )

tho...

I've gotten more done, today, than...in the last few weeks.

: )

May God Bless...the Broken, Mended...and, Soulful.

<3 <3 <3 

Love...to Ya, 

Barb C.

Prayers, for All.

Grateful...for Son, Justin....this morning.

Travel, wasn't advised, this morning...didn't think Justin, could make it to work, or do chores.

He lives out in the Country, 25 miles...away, now.

He has his Dad's...Work Ethic.
