Hang On To What Is Lovely

“I’ve knelt there,
and so have you,
hanging on
to what you love,
to what is lovely.
The lake’s
shining sheets
don’t make a ripple now,
and the stars
are going off to their blue sleep” - Mary Oliver 

Today I finally deactivated my husband’s cell phone and then unexpectedly burst into tears while taking to the Verizon agent. I should have done it sooner, but couldn’t do it for all the reasons. I guess I should have know the tears would come again. Grief creeps up on you that way.

Today is warm and so I took my son fishing right after school because the lake is good medicine for us both and we need to soak in all the beauty of this place.

I fell asleep and forgot to watch for the meteors last night. Did you see any?
