Bojangles, Okra, and Another Honda
Dear T.C. Today is July 13, 2026 - Monday We took a day trip to Bonneau this past Saturday. I won't do that again without also taking Dramamine. (sigh) We spent the day with your grandma and Aunt Betty. Aimee and Derrick were there with both of...
Dear Reader
Dear Reader, Today is September 21, 2026. A special thanks to each of you as you've traveled with me on this journey. Today, I found the courage to clean off my desk. My Phd was overwhelming. That's Pile it Higher & Deeper = Phd...ha ha While...
New Car
Dear T.C. Today is Monday, July 06, 2026. I still say grief is a strange companion. Today, it sits like a stone in my chest. Heavy. Uncomfortable. No amount of tears can wash it away. It won't stop me from praising Jesus! We've been doing a deep study...
250 Years
Dear TC, Today is July 04, 2026. The United States of America celebrated 250 years today. Two hundred and fifty years! Such an amazing thing! As I sat and pondered on 2026 it reminded me of 1976. I realized I can remember when we celebrated the...
Birdbaths and Pork Chops
Dear TC, Today is July 01, 2026. I scrubbed the birdbath for the ump-teenth time. Who knew we had such dirty birds? The fresh water was poured in and tomorrow, it will be dirty again. Small price to pay to see the Eastern Bluebirds so close to the house. ...
Tired
Dear TC, Today is June 26, 2026. This "new" tired is NOT my friend. I've been tired in the past, but this...it's different. Nobody ever told me that grief could make you tired in a whole new way. You were born without anesthesia - none. I came home and...
Labor of Love
June 25, 2026 Dear TC Your Celebration of Life Service was such a blessing! The people who mean the most to me have had only positive remarks. It would have been awesome to record it, but that just wasn't possible. If only a few others had been able...
A Poem
T.C. If I could dream of you, I would sleep forever. If I had a boat to reach you, I would cry a river. If the wind could carry my prayers, I would wish for a tornado. If the darkness would quiet my soul, I would live for the night. ...
Dear T.C. – Receiving Friends
June 22, 2026 - Monday Dear T.C. Today, we came by ones and twos to pay our respects. There were hugs and tears and more laughter than I would have thought possible. Friends and family came and shared a hug and a smile and an encouraging word. I don't think...
Dear TC – Father’s Day
Dear TC, June 21, 2026 - Sunday Today was Father's Day. A bittersweet day. We spent time w/Charlie and Joseph. We all went to lunch at Garcia's. Your absence was evident. Although you didn't share our fondness for Mexican cuisine; you would have been there....
