Hey Grammaw!!!!

What's fer supper!!?

Chicken n' Dumplins done jis' right -
Fresh garden veg'tables on the table tonight..
We got chicken legs for the youngins, and a big chok-lit cake...
Enough good food to make your liver quake!

Yummmm Yum!!

Hehe.. talk about a blast from the past. We did have a good dinner over here tonight, and everyone came to eat. I sure missed Dad... very much so, but you know, I'm going to get over that. I'm going to try to stop wallowing in that and just be thankful that Mom's still here. Things are very much by far NOT as bad as they could be in my life. I still have soooo much to be greatful for, and wallowing around in this grief isn't the way to show it.

Dad, I'm not letting go of you. Not by far. I'm just going to try to look at this new life for what it is. As good as it will ever be again, and while I have it, I'm not going to waste a moment. I'll still cry. I'll still miss you very much. I just have to stop missing you so much that I'm missing life with those I have left.
I'll still tell you stories now and then, but they're going to be about what's going on in my life as it is now. I know that's how it should be. I know that's how you'd want it. I love you Dad. Thank you for loving me right the hell back.
