Many have said I should write a book. Or at least store these random thoughts somewhere. So here they are.

Remembering an Auntie...

Today is the one year anniversary of Aunt Marge's passing. God, do I miss her. With everything that's gone on with Aunt Sally, and with the impending wedding, and just her cheery voice on the phone - with her lilting laugh, excellent advice, and interest in anything at all I wanted to discuss with her. I don't know how many of you believe in this, but she has appeared to me several times in dreams, always benevolent... and always with either food or drink involved in some way. "Appetite for Life" was a great way to describe her. She loved food and drink of all types. Always willing to try something new, she even had her own unique way of eating... very daintily mashing items together with her fork and eating without mussing her bright pink lipstick. :)
My god, how she would love planning for the wedding. I can't imagine her not there, in spirit with me on June 10.
I know you're always there. I still miss you.

She'll be with you that special day, don't you worry sweetie.

She wouldn't miss it for the world I am sure. I know that I too feel that way about my Dad, and I couldn't imagine walking down the aisle without him. How would I do it? How could I do it, was the more important question that I kept posing to myself. But I did, and he was there the whole time, laughing his ass off and happy that of all places, I had my reception at a yacht club for he was forever at his little hole in the wall yacht club in beachmont and we all used to make fun of him for it.
So as you do your thing that day, she'll be there when you least expect her to be and she'll let you know too. =)
Love you chicken.
