New apartment

 I have successfully moved all my treasures into a one bedroom apartment and everything I wanted fit.  I still miss Tom terribly, but I have a fresh start and time will heal the heartache.  I get my strength form the Lord.

I don't have a nice view like the last apartment, but I can always walk outside and change my view.  Beth and  Hazel came by this morning and I was very happy to see them.  I also saw that Heather and family are coming for the service Friday.  MY heart is overflowing.

March, 2, 2026 Two days after

 On March 1, 2026, my husband of 70 years went

 on to see the Lord. Words cannot express my grief and I never know what will spark a memory.  I have so many memories over the years.  The last years were full of misery because of his fall and broken hip, femer, leg and spirit.  He was never the same again. 

 But we have so many wonderful memories of life together over the years, trips with chuck and Luella, grandkids and camping trips with friends.  I never dreamed of so many adventures and he planned them all for our enjoyment.  He was very nervous when I got out of his sights in a foreign land and so I bought a flower hat so he could always see me.
