Hey what happened to my background? Laura, help!

Losing someone dear

Well, I did survive saying goodbye to my dear friend Lynn at her memorial service. It was touch and go there for awhile, cried until my face turned red and luckily Vicki had tissues in her purse to share. We knew each other for 30 years and in all that time we laughed and cried and partied. She met Tim and got to have her boys, they built a wonderful life together. The 3 or so years that she was battling cancer were tough on that little body of hers so I think like people say we should be grateful that she is no longer in pain. So Lynn, watch for letters to heaven that I'll be writing you. And watch your boys become the great men that you always meant them to grow up to be. You will be forever in my heart. RIP Lynn...

Sleepless summer so far...

Saw summer solstice come along and finally some warm weather. So here's the latest. The sailor boy is somewhere near the Arabian Sea, I can only let that spill because the Navy tells everyone all over the whole internet so I'm not going to bother worrying about loose lips. Although the month of June has been a very sleepless one between my menopausal hot flashes and the sailor boy calling in the middle of the night. Nothing you can do about the midnight calls since he's 12 hours ahead but guess I should go shopping at the health food aisle for a homeopathic help for the night sweats. Stay safe and sane on this 4th weekend. Future posting regarding sailor boy and life in general to come.
