One more day.

Love. 

Still in a very... dark place, today. 
This one's... gonna take some time. 

Visited with my Nephew, Jimmy, this afternoon. 
Sister, Chery's Son. 
Jimmy's Dad, Jim... passed away a while back, Jimmy asked me to come look at his parents house, and give him some direction, next week. 
I've only visited Jim and Chery's home, once, since Chery passed away, back in '03. 

I was closest to Chery, out of all of my Siblings. 
She's one of the biggest reasons I Love 'Old', so. 
Chery, and Dad. 
Love. 

Chery had an Amazing Eye, and Loved to restore Antiques. 
Her 'Home' was So Incredibly Inviting, no matter where they lived. 
Chery had a 'Wanderlust', concerning 'Homes'. 
She was a Stay at Home Mom, mostly, but... she Loved finding Old Houses that needed Love, and worked Tirelessly fixing them up, while Jim worked a factory job. 
Chery, was Amazing. 
Love. 

It frustrated Jim... hahahahaha... that as Soon as they'd get the 'Fixer Uppers' Perfect, hahahahaha...
Chery would be combing the newspaper for Another... Old House, that 'Needed'. 
Hahahahaha!! 
Love. 

I don't think Jim gave Chery Near Enough Credit!! Chery made them A Lot of Money... over the years
{ which meant Nothing... to Chery}
while Saving so Many Homes. 
Love.
Oh my. 

It's gonna be tough, walking back into that Old Farmhouse. 

I'd do anything for Jimmy. He's Such a Good Kid!!
Love. 
I see, and hear... So Much of Chery, in him 
Love. 

Chery Loved Critters, she was Always Rescuing little lost souls. 
Love.
Jimmy... shares Chery's empathetic heart. 
Love. 

Can't write about this last week, but ..
want to put the information out for the Amazing People, below. 
Love. 
They Definitely gave me Hope, until Highway 151 took it all away. 


So Grateful for These Folks. 
Oh my. 
Love.
We just needed one more day. 

Love to Ya...
Prayers for All.
