A Sweetie Luv In.

Sweetie and me. 

Remember me saying that I feel like a record that keeps skipping back and playing the same song over and over again?  When it comes to picking out a picture for the post, that is where the scratch is, and I keep slipping back into that which is no more. 

Reminders of that love, that companionship that is gone. I don't want to post without pictures of my Sweetie, and if I don't, it just doesn't feel right. 

When we were together, it was so natural for me to pull the camera out, and take selfies of us. I'm so glad I did, but now that time is gone and the camera lays silent. 

I have some travel plans for next month, a return to Texas, a trip to Cali and an Angel game for my birthday, and then to Corvette Driving School. Should be able to get some more pictures of life after Sweetie. 

Saturday

Woke up and seemed like I was going to get out and do some yard work, and my lazy butt keep me inside for the day. 

Did my laundry, changed the bed, and cleaned up the kitchen. 

I even made some biscuits. I'm so damn tired of staying inside. Will make another effort tomorrow. 

Did get to the drugstore and get some cold relief meds, and I do feel better. My voice is starting to sound normal again. Still raspy, and maybe two octaves lower than normal. 

Breathing is easier, and so, I believe I'm close to going outside. I just might give Tweety a bath, she so needs it. Little by little, baby steps, and that is all. 

Called Sweetie's brother, actually saw that he was on Facebook, and rang him up. We talked, and it was good. He misses his sis too. We share a tender heart for her. Talked about taking my other car and driving out to see them. Have to take that one, because of where he lives, in the mountains of Central Cali, and Tweety can't make those roads. Too rough. So, maybe in October or November, I'll head his way, and we can have a Sweetie Luv In. He is my kindred spirit. 

As the day comes to any end, I get out of the car, and Driver walks me into the house. We didn't go far, maybe around the block, but we always seem to end where we started from. Day by day, little by little, life comes back into my being. Driving on the Road to New Life isn't as easy as I thought it would be. That is OK, for I am striving to Keep My Shiny Side Up. C'ya, Luv Ya, and God Bless. Arthur.
