My Dad died three months ago today. I miss him and find things so different now that he’s gone. I don’t know when I’ll stop missing him – or even if I will. But, I guess with time the pain will get less and less – or so they say.

I understand your feelings. I lost my dad in 1998 and my mom passed away just this past September. I miss them terribly. It is a strange feeling not to have a parent in this world. It is wonderful to have the wonderful memories of our parents. I am thankful for that as I’m sure you are.
I like your new look and I look forward to checking in with you.

i miss my dad, also. he dies at 59 and I was a wee lad of 24 then. I now treasure the time that has been extended to me to support and care for my mom (89) and to honor his memory by treating her well.

good to see you again, and looking so fit. when I am not working on my tree house, I am writing a few things again. and paddling my kayak on our mountain lake… life is so good.
ps. we will never forget what you did with project 2996, it was a great deed! Thank you

I completely understand – each day is marked by a homesickness that is ever lurking.

Many years ago, when my Mom passed on, a friend told me that it never went away, that she still ‘reached for the phone’ when anything good or bad happened, and it had been 25 years for her.

How grateful I am to have had a parent I am still homesick for after all of these years!

Really like the new blog!!! Great look!
