we love our dear angel friends :) remembering a dear friend. to Carol, with all our love <3
Angel friends, i'm writing with a heavy heart, as i found out some very sad news, a little while ago. our dear friend Carol (Mycat) who is a long time DS member, passed away. i was notified by our friend Dezna who emailed me. i hadn't been into my yahoo emails, often during holiday times. this is very sad news, and is shocking to hear. our thoughts, prayers, and hearts are with her and her family. we were friends with Carol since 2007, early days of DS. Carol wrote me, in december, and throughout 2018. She lost her husband Paul in early 2018, and her friend Mary in late November. She had just written me, and i mailed her, a birthday card, Christmas card in December. some days, and weeks went by, and didn't hear from her. i'm not on facebook, so i didn't know if something was going on. She had done some shopping, recently got a new mattress, and new cat named Zen. she was in good spirits. Carol was a very dear friend and very caring. she loved cats, and she was so nice, polite, writing, and she was just a simple, good old fashioned person, that was a dear, and sweet friend. it's very sad, and hard to hear of her passing. she was enjoying the christmas cats pictures i sent her. i'm very emotional right now. she's with Paul, Mary, and her cat Ruby. Carol was a very dear friend, and will always be in our hearts. she was very nice to us all, and sent us wonderful cards, notes, and beautiful gift of friendship over the years. we will always be thankful, for the wonderful gift of her friendship. i'm gonna miss her. many memories, i'll always treasure with all my heart. i know many people, knew Carol, and were also blessed with her friendship over the years <3
i just found out this news, earlier this afternoon. i do have more writings to share. i have so many emotions going on.

As the early morning was going on, i called Holly before we went to the post office. :) She needed my support, as she needed to return to her storage unit to pick up some of her meds, as she wasn't expecting to not be going to the ED hospital today. her daughter Kim told her to put her meds in there, before tuesday, and with the plans changing with Kim bringing Holly thursday, Holly needed to pick up some of her meds she needs. She had me on the phone, when she went, and she got her meds, she also stored around her laptop computer, and a few other items, in storage. :) Holly left Regina's home, she said she's not going back there. Holly went to Margie and Chet's home. i talked with Holly on speaker phone, on the way there, and also talked with Margie :) she's a really sweet lady, and even mentioned about Holly's Baltimore Ravens, in the playoffs :) We all feel very comfortable, knowing Holly is at Margie's and Chet's home :) they are like parents to her, and Holly told me she'd rather be there, than at Regina's home. it's a new beginning, and new journey Holly is beginning now :) We're with her every step :) She and i have been keeping in touch, texting and talking at times :) She's ready for her healing journey, and wants to begin :) She's fully expecting her daughter Kim, to be ready for her for tomorrow, to bring her in. it means a lot to Holly, that Kim will be going with her, to the ED hospital. It's been her wish, and we want Kim to be there for her, this is a really important thing, and Holly deserves goodness, healing, and to feel safe, secure, and comforted with lots of love :) Thank you all, our dear angel friends, for being here for us, and for keeping us all in your thoughts, prayers, and in our hearts :) it means the world to us :)
my mom, Lisa, and i went to the post office :) Holly's so happy i kept on the phone with her until we arrived to the post office :) i said, "i'm so proud to be there" :) at the post office, it went really smoothly :) i had some nice social interaction, and public speaking :) it helps me a lot, and builds up my foundation of confidence, that helps me during all of my experiences :) You all give me strength, hope, and have helped me make this great progress :) i feel very blessed, and thankful :) at the post office, we mailed a treasures package, to our dear friend Carolyn (Cypher) for her birthday, and mailed 9 cards, notes, and some letters :) i had a big writing week, and i'm ready for some more writings :) i bought a book of winter birds stamps, featuring red cardinals, bluejays, woodpeckers, and chickadees birds :) the stamps are very nice :) i bought extra stamps, as i'm gonna be writing cards, notes, letters to Holly, sharing all of our heart-felt love, prayers, support, inspiration, and encouragement :) every card, note, letter, all i mail to her, will include all of your wonderful prayers, and well wishes :) Words of support, so that she knows, we're with her every day, every step of the way :)
It was so nice, going to the post office this morning, and being there for Holly, giving her love, care, and support :) on the way home from the post office, we saw a duck swimming in the peaceful pond :) We were surprised to see the duck, as it's a wintery cold day in the 30's, but lots of sunshine :) i've been thinking of Holly a lot, and all of the winter birds spirit soaring in the winter sunshine :) i'm looking forward to lots more writings, in the days ahead, and also ordering my new printer :) i have some special pictures, i want to print for Holly, and including the pictures in her cards :) i want to take some nature pictures to print for her too :) She may be at the ED hospital, for a month. She was in a rehab facility in 2012, to recover from her tia strokes, she did so well, and made it through :) We all believe in her, and have faith in her :) it's a journey, it's been an emotional time. Holly's been through a lot, the past few years, she went through a rollercoaster of ups and downs. standing by her side, through everything, has made me so proud :) i told her, she can always rely on, and count on me, my family, and our DS angel friends, and her family too :) we always want them to be on the same page, for her, so that she gets all of the love, care, support, encouragement she needs :) i've already began to write her some notes, cards, to mail to her :)

Hello Chris, so sorry about the loss of your friend Carol. What a nice remembrance you made for her. Glad you were able to be there for Holly in support as she prepares for her health journey. Glad you got to the PO So much happening in your world right now,so be sure to get good sleep and rest eat nourishing food and tend to your garden family and garden. Its going to be a rough time but I know you and Holly will get through it with love and tenderness love/greenies/hugs
God Morning Chris I am so glad to hear that Holly got things worked out with Kim and also is able to stay with Margie and Chet while she waits to go into the hospital. I am so happy that she is going into the hospital and she will get the help she needs for her eating disorder. It is also great that Kim will be with her the whole way. It will be important for Holly to have lots and lots of family support at this time.
So sorry to hear about Carol. It is always hard to lose someone close to us. We lost our dear friend right before Christmas and I am missing her terribly. But we all have to realize that they are in a better place and that we will see them again when it is our turn to make the journey to heaven.
Love the birds stamps. I also got some of the same stamps. You know me and the birds. I love my birds and when I saw the stamps, I just had to have them.
So glad that you had a great trip to the post office. I get so proud of you each week when you write about your post office adventure. It is then that I realize just how far you have come with overcoming your OCD.
Got to run for now. Have a great day and looking forward to hearing about Holly's adventure to great health. Let her know I am thinking of her and praying she will find the help and peace she is seeking. Hugs--John Debbie Mya Abby and Allie
