In case it's a surprise to anyone, having you all around has made all this so much less of a horror and let me see the potential for unexpected adventure and accomplishment. He'd be proud of me, figuring out this new world and how to kick its ass.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm sure he was often and always proud of you Connie.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
He'd be very proud. The rest of your life is in front of you, Connie.
This was a horrible loss and it will take a long time to work through it. It's going to be hard and lonely at times.
And yet, you do have opportunities you didn't before. Whoever you want to be, however you want to do that.
It's not only okay, but necessary for you to take the freedom with the loss.
I look at what Maria and -t and Laura have done after they lost their husbands, and I know you have so much yet in front of you. Good things as well as the loss you're dealing with now.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
He'd be proud of me, figuring out this new world and how to kick its ass.
I'm so glad you can see that!
Applied magic soup for lunch, but feel worse than when I woke up. Blergh.

We're sneaking down to Baltimore this afternoon. I am excited. Sarameg, Lisah, Maria, if you all are around, we're not leaving until midday Friday
I have plans tonight but maybe I'll see you're out and about in Hampden. And, happy birthday!!

Sara, part of your solution should probably include travel to Texas.

I will third the endorsement of Geico's road service. I've used them four times, and it's a very no-muss, no-fuss service. One time it did take them a very long time to arrive. On the other hand, when road work took out two tires, the Geico tow person figured out the nearest place that was open and carried my tires, and towed me there.
As others have said, Connie, I'm sure he was proud of you and knew you had the strength to find new adventures.

Must pull in the manic a little, it's too soon to be pricing apartments. But one-bedroom apartments in Salt Lake are the same price as I'm paying rent for the house. The idea of having a space that is fully mine makes me giddy.
