When I awake at 4 in the morning do I try to fall back to sleep, now that you’re absent.

When I look out the window from the bed do I wait for a change of view before I get up, now that you’re absent.

When our beloved felines Enya and Tammy come into our room and jump on the bed should I greet them the same as always, now that you’re absent.

When I put the toothbrush to my teeth do I follow the same routine, now that you’re absent.

When I brew the coffee do I make four cups as always, now that you’re absent.

When I go to the store should I find another way to get there, now that you’re absent.

When I take an afternoon nap should it be longer, now that you’re absent.

When I work on our story at the computer should I sit awhile longer, now that you’re absent.

When I’m in the kitchen and the dishwasher is almost full should I run it anyway, now that you’re absent.

When I sit in the living room and face the television should I turn it off, now that you’re absent.

When it is time to go to bed should I pick up the book and continue to read where you left off, now that you’re absent.

When I, Enya and Tammy yawn our last for the day should we wait for the eternal to serenade us to sleep, now that you’re absent.

Love you all
