My son, David will arrive aroung 3:30 and leave around 4:15. This

I woke up the next day with Ginny's sleep mask next to me in bed!! It made me think of the song "Scarlett Ribbons".

If I live to be a hundred
I will never know from where
Came those lovely scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair

I was bringing her phone charger and going deeper and deeper into the hospital. Halls were getting longer, authorized-only double doors and strange elevators. 
Trying to get to her before her phone died. - Recurring dream that I wake up from in tears.

Mardi Gras honeymoon



Merlin and French mime. No argument there!


In May 2023 some idiot backed his boat/truck rig into her path, and she was without a car for about 5 months. Too petite to drive my truck, 
I took her on all her errands, including some of the early medical consultations, "Life with the wife".  What I wouldn't give for more!




Pokemon Go critter showed up with Scooter.





If only I could catch up with her now.
