We had a good day today Papa
Jay gives me daily updates about how we are doing.
He lets me know if we are having a good day.
It is usually based on his fun level… as it should be.
Today we did nothing much about Boy fun instead we shopped for food and gassed the car. I actually took it upon myself to cook all of our meals… Mélaine is impressed.
I have planned out the meals for the week and have washed the clothes, picked up a dead mouse that had been dead for a while, Yuk! I cleaned cat puke off of my nicest piece of furniture and washed the covers.
And ordered new carpet for the bedrooms. Something I always wanted but Mélaine never really did.
We had a happy dance today that was amazing. Turns out my emotions happy and sad come out together, so as I was happy dancing I was also really crying hard. I am now calling this grieve dancing. If you are going to cry you might as well dance about it.
Love to all
PS I wrote a really pissed off song on the plane yesterday, I have only shared it with one person so far… it seemed to be an angry moment… moving into a new phase?

Happy, sad, and angry never seem to be too far apart. I usually flow between them fairly fluidly. I’ll see you in a couple of days.

Hey Keith
Wow – menu planning, cooking and household design. Fancy coming to stay with us?? Or at least sharing your menus! I’m impressed; it’s something I always mean to do and then forget or start to do and then digress.
Lots of love to you both.

Hi Keith
Please publish your meal planner so I can get some ideas – I’ve had enough of “ready meals” recently!
New carpets eh – Cheaper than adding to the VW / Audi collection……….

Keith,
Just wanted to let you know you’re in our thoughts everyday. David Haake let me know about Melaine’s passing. Wish I had some Sergeant Major magic for you, but I all I can offer is my deepest heartfelt sympathy for your loss. May peace of mind find you soon..
