Getting Along....

Just an update to let you know we are ok. There are good days and bad days, but they keep going on and that's what matters.

I seem to be discovering retail therapy. I've been buying things that Trish and I talked about getting, but never did or things that we could use around the house. This is very out of character for me and gives me more stuff to do and frustrates me because I am not getting other things done... I have made progress on the boxes in my bedroom, but it feels like a gerbil on the wheel, it never ends. This Saturday, Matt has an all day debate and I am judging in the tournament. So there goes another day of working around the house.

We haven't gotten a Christmas Tree yet or started decorating, hopefully this Sunday we can do that. I have also started putting together recipes for a cookbook. I was thinking I could get it done before the holidays, but that's just looking very unlikely.

You know when you get married, you are told that you should become one, that you are no longer two people, but one. You laugh and accept that as a figure of speech. You only realize how much you have or haven’t become one when you lose the other half. Trish and I were as complimentary and necessary to each other as I could imagine. We were truly one. I feel like a car with two flat tires many days. It is only her desire to have me move on that keeps me going on those days.
