So Much To Tell...

Very busy weekend...again. Are you shocked? The boys (Nik and Jake) actually spent the weekend with grandma and grandpa. Helping out dad, playing games with mom. Nice break for me.

We started out Friday having dinner and drinks with Timmy and Bea. After one pitcher of Margaritas, my brother had me convinced to fly again. We started planning an all family trip to Mexico. Oh and by all family...that means no kids. Just like our trip to Vegas for Shirley's birthday a couple of years ago. We look back and realize how important that trip was...you never know how important this one might be. I am starting to come to terms with my fear of flying...I realized that if the plane goes down and I die...I will see Shirley that day. So it would be a wonderful day!!!!! And I would have a lot of my family with me. Don't get me wrong...there will still be lots of alcohol and heavy drugs. We are planning this trip early next year...maybe January or February.

Saturday we did go to the grad party for Phillip and Joe. Yea!!! That was a lot of fun. And the weather turned out great. Finished up the evening going to see The Proposal with Tom, Cindy, Brandon and Crystal.

Yesterday was catch up day. Getting ready for my big Colorado trip this weekend. Only a 4 day work week, let's hope it goes fast.

Love,

Teresa:)

Finally Friday!!!

A week full of emotions. I don't handle people dying very well, and this week was full of it. I think I am just jealous of these people getting to see my Shirley....and I don't get to.

O.K. so last night met the girls for dinner. A great time of course. I actually had a picture to post on here but I forgot the adaptor to download it with. Grrrr...that's frustrating. I got to laugh quite a bit so that helped.

Mr. Harley (Joe and Kelly's dog) seems to be doing better. I really am relieved to hear that. He did have to have some surgery so he is going to need some recovery time. We can deal with that.

So the weekend ahead is busy of course. Tonight I will be hanging out with Tim and Bea. Tomorrow we will be going to a graduation party...yea!!!! That definitely means family time!! Always good.

Everyone please be safe over the weekend...and we will talk again on Monday...starting the countdown for vacation...one week from tomorrow!

Love,

Teresa:)

:(

Today isn't really working out the way I thought it would. I did have a great lunch with my sister Kathy. She lets me cry...

I'm so sad. I just read that Farrah Fawcett died of her cancer. And I know how sad the people who loved her are. It just makes my whole heart ache. But...Farrah Fawcett gets to meet Shirley today. (Kathy said she can feather Shirley's hair...she is funny).

I am also waiting to hear how Joe and Kelly's dog Harley is doing. He got sick yesterday and he is at the vet. At one point they thought he would be o.k. and now he's not doing so good. We love Harley.

So just another sad day...

Love,

Shirley Told Me It Would Be O.K....

in my dream last night. We were sitting together and she had her arm around me and kept telling me it would be o.k. I was crying a lot but her comforting me felt so good. I definitely hope she is right...that it will be o.k.

Today brings another really freaking hot day. I will be lunching with Kathy Jean today. And tonight I will be eating dinner with the girls from High School. So I got to see Shirley in my dreams, lunch with Kathy and dinner with some really good friends...I guess that makes it a great day.

Hope your day is great too!!!!

Love,

Teresa

Heat Wave

Wow...it's hot here!!! Ridiculous!!! I hope everyone is sitting in air conditioning or a swimming pool.

Not much going on today. Sitting here working..which is not a good thing. Gives me too much time to think about how much I miss Shirley.

I am going out tomorrow night with the girls from high school....I love that. Getting excited for Colorado trip. This time last year, mom, Kathy, Shirley and I were planning our trip to St. Louis. That seems like it was yesterday. Time goes really fast...I used to hate that...not so sure I hate it anymore.

Everybody stay out of the heat if you can...

Love,

Teresa

Kathy Made Me Smile Today When She Said...

Maybe Shirley won the Publishers Clearing House in Heaven...or maybe Star Search. Because Ed McMahon was lucky enough to get to go see Shirley today.

Love,

Teresa

5 months today:(

Really???? She has been gone for that long? I woke up at exactly 6:30 this morning...I could feel her.

I looked back at the blog and a year ago I was just happy for good bloodwork.

I think I will just sit here and cry today.
