The Visit
I have read that many times after a person has a heart attack or a traumatic physical problem their personality changes. My father’s personality changed after he had his heart attack. I was quite afraid driving up to the capitol that I would find someone else now lived in my Joey’s......Read More

Getting Used to the Bad
A friend of mine found herself widowed in her 30’s. She had survived a very difficult marriage to a raging alcoholic. Everyone knew the life that she lived was terribly difficult. She hung in there and never complained. One day she came home from work to find that her Jake had died. He......Read More

50 More Days, Just Like Today
There is a Pseudo Spring in the air. I woke up this morning to the sound of singing birds. Something that I had not heard in so long, I barely noticed it had been missing. We are having a heat wave of sorts. It is in the 50’s- I have my windows open for the first time in months. Maria......Read More

In the Field with the Boys
Today was a beautiful day. I am confident we will pay for this lamb-like weather at the end of the month. My Sunday’s peaceful rest did me more good than I imagined. I feel better than I have in a very long time. I came in to work today and got called straight out to the field. I had a......Read More

Clinging to the Edge
When I was a little girl I could not swim. Naturally that didn’t keep me out of the deep end. I would make my way around the pool clinging to the edge. I would pull myself along until I was in the deep end, then I would hold on to the edge and kick my legs out behind me. It was fun.......Read More

The Wise Old Man on the Mountain
Today I went to see the Towers. Part of my job takes me to Cell Towers on occasion. I went with Scott to the towers today. I followed him. Scott drives like a bat out of Hell- and he never ever signals. Following him is a challenge. You end up relying on Psychic power and the will to live.......Read More

Indecision
I have gone back and forth over this silly thing all weekend long. Last week they dropped the price of the Big Sky house down to what they had told me the first part of February was their lowest possible price- when I up and walked away from the negating table. “Thank you for your time,......Read More

The Best Laid Plans
I’ve been dead for nearly five years now. Well, I’ve still had a pulse- but I haven’t been living my life. I can still remember what it was like when I was actually living. I worked five days a week, but working over time meant working two hours- maybe. Back then, work was......Read More

Joey
Today was difficult. Work is unreal. I called Joey, I wanted to know how his doctor appointment had gone. He is having trouble with his lungs. They are hoping it will clear up in 48 hours. He didn't tell me what the plan B was if they didn't. I get the......Read More

Redirection
I went to the towers again yesterday. This time with our sister company. Jay and Ray. Jay is cool. He knows his stuff and is easy on the eyes. There is a sweetness about him. Ray talks constantly. He knows everything- or at least thinks he does- in reality he is a bit insane. After my......Read More
