Journal Entry for June 12, 2007 Mood
Tuesday, June 12, 2007

The kitties and I are alone until Friday. Mr. Nutkins left this morning for a business trip to Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois. He said he is seeing hundreds of cicadas -- insects that emerge every 17 years.  We have never been apart for a week. I miss him. The kitties are running around the house wondering where he is. They miss him.

 My mom's ashes arrived in the mail at my dad's house last Saturday. It is rather emotional. He can't bring himself to open the cardboard box yet. That is so strange that they mail it... I talked to my darling sis in law on the phone tonight about setting up a quiet place in dad's house for the urn, sort of a shrine with a candle and a picture. We are going to work on that together. She is very clever about such things.

 My violet flavored bubble bath awaits me and then to bed.
