Happy Thanksgiving, 2025

Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving, no matter how you wish to spend it. Although this was not a great day/weekend for us, I never stopped loving you and wanting you to be happy, find joy.

Maybe we can see each other on Thursday, late afternoon, if that works for you. I’m trying to manage work schedule and only one car in the house at the moment.

Searching for these photos, reminded me of our time together and how much you inspired me.

Love, always.

Thanksgiving, snow, and leaves

Thanksgiving is coming, and I am still thankful for every minute we spent together. I miss that feeling you gave me – the one that made me want to be a better person, make a better life for the two of us.

We’ve got some snow here already, but melting away slowly each day. The ground is brown with leaves and sticks…. and lots of acorns. The deer near here will be happy this winter.

I often think about writing, but no one needs to hear my woes. Happiness seems to evade me more and more. Maybe it is just the change from daylight savings and less daylight. The dark creeps in during the afternoon. The cold just seems to set in.

Home life continues to evolve and change. New granddaughter, failing father, kids being kids and getting older, moving on with their lives.

Jax is starting to look and act like an old dog. I’m not prepared for that. I guess I’m looking like and acting like an old man.

Rest assured, I miss you. I wish you well. I hope you find peace, love, and happiness. I will love you always (unless I get Alzheimers and forget). But I will still feel it in my bones.

Love, always.

P.S. It feels wrong not sending you cards.
