big girl pants, blessed, boot prints, car, prints, reminders, repair, snow, widow

recently, in amongst the times I was feeling sorry for myself, I’ve also been thinking of how blessed I am…

looked out the window into the backyard and could see the boot prints of my snow shoveler… how blessed am I to know that someone will come after it snows and clean my sidewalks and driveway…

had to take the car in because the plug for the block heater had been ripped off… lesson is, be careful who you lend your car to, lol…

anyway, I can afford to get it fixed properly…

good reminder for when I am feeling down;-)…

beloved, big girl pants, blessed, flowers, George, leaves, memories, morning glories, pictures, reminders, roses, widow

been missing my beloved a lot lately…

tonight as I was looking through photos I came across a few that reminded me of him…

this picture of maple leaves, which I took while visiting Cyndi in Ottawa reminded me of a great photo we took in Courtenay of him holding a ginormous maple leaf as we were walking through Cathedral Grove…

on Saturday I turned on the in-floor heating because it is getting cooler… I can remember George installing it in 2009 when we renovated the bathroom… at the time we decided not to put an additional piece of it in front of the sink, thinking it would radiate over… not, lol…

this morning glory reminded me of my 2010 six week stint in the hospital where he brought me photos every day of one of the morning glories that were blooming…

tonight a contractor came by to fix a couple of holes in the bedroom ceiling… George would have fixed that…

and finally, this rose, blooming in the garden… I cannot even guesstimate how many roses he brought me in our life together…

I truly have been blessed over the years… and even now as I am able to enjoy these wonderful memories…

reminders…

beloved, big girl pants, dishwasher, label, reminders, special people, widow, wring out

every time I wring out my facecloth in the bathroom I think of my beloved…

he had the strongest hands and would often wring out things for me and get out tons of additional liquid…

at the end of the day at the office, one of us turns on the dishwasher… each time I do that I am reminded of a colleague who has died… she prepared a label which is located just above the equipment with the directions on which buttons to push…

little things, but these reminders of times with special people are everywhere if you care to see them…
