It is 10:00 pm Tuesday June 16. I just got back from the senior center, library and grocery store. I wanted to locate the senior center even though it was closed but close to the library so I didn’t go too far out of my way.
Talked with Gail, Bette’s friend of fifty years. She lives in Utah. I believe this was our third conversation since Bette passed into the Spirit world and Gail couldn’t be more supportive. I know Bette loves her for that. Gail’s heart is broken and we are there for each other.
Speaking of broken hearts I again remind my siblings (oldest to youngest) Brian, Keven, Pat, Karen and Stephen-their families and Bette’s brother-in-law Zen and 1st cousin Brian and his wife Pat -how much your love and support has and does mean to Bette and I.
Beloved folks I am not crazy. Last week I turned the heat switch off on the thermostat. Last night it got cold and at 4:30 am I awoke to the heat being on. The only way it could come on is the manual moving of the switch to the on position. I say no more.
I now wonder if she did it more for the ‘girls’ or me. I suspect the ‘girls’.
Love you all
The world is a little less bright with my dearest friend no longer with us. She was part of my life for over 50 years! There are so many memories whirling in my head. One of Bette’s strongest gifts was always being there to listen to my woes. She had a way of having you talk it out and decide what to do next with never leading you in any directions. When you finally came up with a solution, she would tell you “good job, now go for and remember I will always love you and stand behind you.” Bette was a little lady with a huge heart. I was so blessed to have her in my life and will miss her smile, laugh and our chats.
