Will it ever end?
Mother's Day is almost over and not a minute too soon. It seems like it never rains but it pours. I learned today that my dear friend's husband is in ICU after surgery - they think he might have a pulmonary embolism.
Joe tried to make the day as pleasant as possible and I did have glimmers of peace. He cooked supper for me - tapas and it was lovely. We went to the garden center and got some plants to put on our balcony. I found a beautiful Gerbera Daisy plant (Lisa loved having them in her VW bug). I also found a plant (cant remember it's name) that my mother used to love. So I remembered Lisa and Mum with flowers. I also still have a candle burning.
Tomorrow is going to be another difficult day to get through. It would be Lisa and Harvey's 15th anniversary. It is harder yet because he is now with Beth. It just is so depressing.
So I think I will forgo Green Smiley Monday tomorrow.
I hope this week improves!
Lisa - the best Mom a kid could have and my daughter and best friend: I miss you always and love you forever.

My heart and prayers are with you today. I know it must have been almost unbearable.
(((hugs))) Love you my friend....I\'m sorry for the pain.
Hello Marlene, its so, so difficult. I understand. Love to you and beautiful Lisa, Linda
These days can be so painful and just know that I\'m thinking of you and sending my love to soften the pain. Missing our children, our own mothers and having a friend\'s husband who is struggling feels like a major dump my friend, I\'m so sorry. Be gentle with yourself today and this week. Love and care, Joanie
