I had your blog page open, and I listened to your playlist, about four times. It helped calm me, and created such a soothing atmosphere. So, thank you for your wonderful music selection.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02218009891182171803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6580898742645753422.post-47025728949544812072010-07-08T01:54:03.211-04:002010-07-08T01:54:03.211-04:00I completely love the new look of your blog.

I look forward to meeting in August. Please remind each of us of the important anniversary dates when we are there. We can lift a glass to your Dragon, and help you feel less alone in your journey.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02218009891182171803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6580898742645753422.post-20625835198035202062010-07-07T18:19:01.907-04:002010-07-07T18:19:01.907-04:00Dear Lady,

I'm here if you should ever need me. You know that, right? If not I'm saying it now. I'm still here for you. I never meant to add to your pain. You mean a great deal to me.<br /><br />Semper Fi,<br />BrickAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6580898742645753422.post-29451911308761326522010-07-07T17:05:35.644-04:002010-07-07T17:05:35.644-04:00Maybe you can share at Widow Camp--just blurt out,...Maybe you can share at Widow Camp--just blurt out, "today is my husband's birthday" "he died 18 months ago" or something. something to make them take notice and gather around you. I know, you are too shy to do that. I so wish a good friend for you would appear--someone you could call at any time--if I were there, I would be that friend. I have had friends call me in the middle of the night and I went to them, so I know I would do it now...with you. I wish I could come and get and you the doggies and put you in my car and drive east--out to the Outer Banks and that nice little cottage I found in May--right on the beach--so healing. When it was high tide, the surf came up under the deck--up against the pilings it was built on--wonderful. I made a pile of rocks while I was there...thinking of how you and Dragon did it. Oh how I wish..............Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03399435237919718544noreply@blogger.com
