I’m feeling more like myself this morning. Better and stronger. The cold is on its way out. I still have a lot of drainage and it’s still in my chest but I do feel better. I’m really missing my brother. He was kind, gentle and caring like me. A great comfort during times of illness. I drifted off to sleep in the afternoon and dreamt that I was with him at one of his doctor appointments. What a rude awakening.

I’m trying to enjoy life’s little pleasures where I can. I’m also working on moving forward. It’s hard but life goes on. Life feels cold and barren right now. Like nothing will be right again.

I am going to float at the pool this morning. I’m also going to buy flowers today. Begonias most likely. They are hardy enough to withstand this heat. Pink, red and white will do nicely. I may take mom to the movies tonight.

I hope everyone has a peaceful day. Hugs to all.
