Missinglisa

It is a week since we met at the retreat.  I felt so lost at first - everyone seemed to know everyone else.  It was amazing how quickly i felt like one of the group.  There is no doubt that we...

I met the wonderful women at the retreat last evening. We told our stories - what an emotional time!  Good emotional.  It was amazing how we could truly feel for each and every one of the moms who...

In Room 275!  It has been a long day but the trip has been fantastic.  We loved Yellowstone.  We knew Old Faithful was there but didn't realize that it was one of many. Looking forward to meeting...

We are in Great Falls Montana!!  Taking a bit of a roundabout route to Utah.  See you soon!!Lisa:  Did you send the dragonfly to greet us at the border?  I miss you always and love you forever. ...

I finally got my scrapbook page done, thanks to my awesome daughter-in-law.  She is very crafty (a graphic artist actually) so it actually got finished.  What an emotional task.  It brought back...

Today was sad as we attended the memorial for our friends' son.  I felt so sorry for his mom.  She is a tiny lady - when I gave her a hug, she was just trembling.  I am going to send her the...

It has been a crazy week and the icing on the cake was a lecture from my son-in-law telling me that I was self centered.  I had a very difficult time at his wedding and I guess I said some snarky...

I was going to journal tonight and call it Green Smiley Sunday.  I go to work for a week again so won't be able to journal on Monday. It was a fairly good week.  I walked every day, spent time...

Yesterday was a dreadful day but today looks better.  I can't say enough about how much it means to me having you there when I need to vent.  Only you moms understand how our emotions can get the...

Something to smile about.  Hmmm.I actually do have some things to smile about. 1.  I am home this week.  2. We had a wonderful home cooked Italian dinner with our good friends and neighbors on...

I am having a busy, weird, absentminded week!First, we decided to go to Edmonton - we hadn't seen our son, DIL and brother-in-law for awhile.   friend/colleague knew I was going so phoned at 6 am...

I woke to the sun beaming in the window.  The house is quiet and I have had time to reflect and read Sarah's journal which spoke volumes to me.Last evening we went to a concert.  The first half was...

We went hiking in the Kananaskis today; the place where Lisa spent many weekends backpacking when she was in Jr. High School.  She loved the hiking club.  As I walked, I felt calm (and often short...

Another week is gone.  I am feeling quite glum.  It is 2 and a half years today that I said good bye to my precious Lisa.  It still feels like I have been kicked in the stomach.Tomorrow we are...
