WRITING TO GOOSE

Good birthday-eve Goose, this month has been rough for many reasons.  May was always our month, we had Mother's Day, your birthday, and my birthday.  We would start the party May 1st and keep it going all month long.  Now when May approaches I feel my heart get heavier...

Good afternoon Goose!  Tomorrow will be my 3rd Thanksgiving without you.  Wow.  This was our other favorite holiday because food is amazing.  I will admit this one so far is easier to deal with than last year or the year before.  I am trying to focus on the fact that y...

Good morning Goose.  It's been 2 years since you moved to heaven and I miss you every second of every day.  It feels like so long since I've held you, or played with your fluffy hairs.  You know I would give anything to have your little smooch on my cheek.  Or to hear...

   Good morning Goose!  Tomorrow is one of your favorite holidays, so I've been jamming out to your Irish pub music.  Songs like; Finnegan's Wake, Rose Tattoo, and Rocky Road to Dublin always make me think of you.  You would play your tunes and dance around like no one...

Good morning Goose!  Things have been busy around here, at least I try and make them that way.  I recently started a bereavement group for parents and so far our little group is getting along nicely.  I just hope it is helping others, that's the idea isn't it.  I am su...

Good morning Goose!  There was just a blue woodpecker outside my bathroom taking nibbles, I'll allow it for now since what  he was eating will one day be getting ripped down and replaced.  So 2 weeks ago marked 1 year since you "graduated" into heaven.  I decided to go...

Good morning Goose, another holiday has come and gone without you.  Thankfully the 4th of July was never a big deal for us so I wasn't too sentimental.  I did however make you a party chair:

The photo came about by accident and I'm glad I finally found a use for it...

Good mid-morning Goose.  No exclamation point I'm feeling very low today.  It's funny how one event or day can throw progress back all the way to the beginning.  Yesterday was the granite couch dedication that your Dad organized.  The couch is amazing, it's beautiful a...

     Hello Goose! (Hello Moose!) Recently I've been feeling the winds of grief blowing me back more and more.  I was doing ok, but sometimes it's other people who cause me to have setbacks.  For example you have gone to the same doctor basically your whole life, and I...

Hi there, if you are new to the blog you might be wondering why a lot of the archive posts have no photos.  That is a work in progress, as they used to be on an old site but they lost the whole thing.  Thankfully I published all of it to Facebook first, so now I am cop...
