Dear Grandma
2011-12-18
I know it’s been a while since we last “spoke”. Know that hardly a day goes by that I don’t think of you, see you, appreciate you – often in the strangest instances. Like drying my feet off before getting out of the tub, snacking on coconut or chocolate chips, and of course, when knitting and crocheting.
James’ Grandpa passed away this past Friday. He had been in the hospital for quite a while, and we were planning to go up to Saskatoon on Saturday to visit him because it had been a few weeks since...read more
You Own This Town

After watching The Extra Yard on TSN, I found myself wanting to hear some of the sounds from the soundtrack again. Took a little, okay a LOT, of googling and youtubing, including contacting the production company, and the Argos to no avail. But I found them! Song for the Sundancer and You Own This Town by Eagle and Hawk.
You Own This Town – Eagle & Hawk
I want someone else to run to
What are you waiting for?
Yesterday I saw you crying
What are you waiting for?

IN FLANDERS FIELDS
By Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall...read more
Hmmm. Hrrrmmm. Yeah.

I’m supposed to write here. I promised myself that I would. I’ve been breaking a lot of those promises to myself lately. Going to run three times a week. Nope, twice last week and once this week. Fail. Going to track my diet in an effort to be aware of my choices and make better ones. Nope, I’ve missed the last couple days of that. Going to put up Christmas lights, clean up yard, work on the garage. Nope, still sitting on the couch, watching football.
I know I should cut myself...read more

I’m in a reminiscing place tonight. Started with a Bon Jovi song on the radio, which always has and always will make me think of Erin. And I struggle with my grief, but at the same time wonder if I’m even entitled to grieve? Really, who am I, just a childhood friend. We drifted apart after high school. But I can’t help the fact that my heart hurts tremendously for those left behind.
And as the song on the radio changes, so do my thoughts. Guns ‘n Roses’ “I Used To Love Her”. And...read more
