Made it through...

10:00AM -- I made a new arrangement for Larry's grave on Saturday. Below is the picture. You can click on the pic and it will open to full size. I added the wooden angel too. I talked to Toledo friends - Neva and Bob - this past Saturday. Or was it Friday? Anyway, it was a nice conversation. Got a Christmas card from Rob, Stacy and the grandbabies. Thank you for the picture and note.

Not much news to report here. Unleaded Regular gas is down to $1.47 a gallon as of yesterday. Every time it drops, I think of Larry's reaction. Neither of us thought we'd see gas under $3.00/gallon again just back in July or August. Gawd, I miss our discussions. The ones where we would start on one topic and ease into another and another. Discussions that would last two and three hours at a time. We had that communication thingie going on from day one. I loved it. Sometimes he'd tell me about his dreams during the night - if he remembered them. He talked in detail last Spring about the hallucinations he was experiencing while in the hospital and nursing facility. We talked about us...about our pasts...about his concerns for me once he was gone. We talked politics...religion...books...movies....songs....food....our life....how we met online....what happened online....wars....tv shows....his health....my vision....my hearing....economics/economy...his job at the VA....everything...we talked about everything practically every day for the past 9+ years.
