If home is where my heart is, then I have never
been more homesick and out of place...
On any given Friday we would normally find ourselves walking down to the beach.
Listening to music and enjoying one of these delicious drinks.
This has not been the case since November. Arvid just came back from
Fort Lauderdale. Talking about being there, about going back home
and about missing it has made me homesick. Yes, right now I am missing
our home, my surroundings and all things that are familiar. I'm missing
my Brutus and my Shadow a little too much and a little too often
Sniff is such a good kitty. He kept me company when we were alone and never
left my side. At nights he slept close to me and together we kept each other
warm. I love little Sniff and I am grateful he came into our lives.
Arvid and I may not be ready, but Sniff is all ready for the icy weather that we are
expecting. His foodies arrived yesterday so there is no way he will be going hungry.
Not a chance. The good thing is that we are all together and that makes it better.
Friday in Branson. What shall we do? Oh yeah, it's icy conditions. It's freezing cold.
It's not the sunshine state. Yeah we will stay in again. Same as we did the last few
Fridays since we have been here. I am missing the sunshine, the beach, the boats
passing by from our balcony. I am missing Florida very much right now.
Happy Friday everyone. My mom keeps reminding us that spring is not that far away.
My mom is always there making us see all the good things in life and makes us realize
everyday how lucky we all are. She is absolutely right. We are fortunate. We have
each other and we have the love of a close knot family that makes us stronger.
In my daughter's eyes I am a hero. I am strong and wise and I know no fear.
But the truth is plain to see. She was sent to rescue me. I see who I want to
be in my daughters eyes. Me I see who I want to be in my mother's eyes...
