I stand apart

I googled “Daughter of Bride dress” and a list of “Mother of the Bride” sites popped up.

Dead Pets Society

I get a funny sort of depressed, nostalgic feeling watching the YouTube my brother made of Barney’s Last Day. It’s not that I feel sad for Barney…he had a great, long life in which he was adored. I feel sad for those of us that have to feel the emptiness of the furry little voidContinue reading “Dead Pets Society”

My last weekend with Barney

I’m feeling a little better now. Have been able to watch the video of Barney, with the music on, and smile. Good old Barney. When we picked him up from the groomer on the morning of our Christmas party, the groomer said he was losing a lot of weight and his ears needed cleaning.

The Funnies

On the way to my cousin’s wedding last spring, my grandmother sat in the front seat, and Rob, my stepmother and I sat in the back. I think there was some concern that Grandma wasn’t always altogether with it, but she was never anything but lucid and sharp when I spoke to her. She interruptedContinue reading “The Funnies”

The inlaw equivalents

Yesterday morning, we were watching Prison Break Season One when Rob’s mom called to tell us to come to the hospital right away if he wanted to say goodbye to his grandmother. Rob wrapped a bandanna around his head and we rushed right over. Rob’s sister was holding one of Grandma’s hands, his mother wasContinue reading “The inlaw equivalents”
