Heart Ache

Heavy, chest crushing

Anxiety that follows

Your soul and each breath.

Dealing with aging and dying parents is a tough phase of life. My mom passed and now Sam’s mom is failing.

In a perfect world we would be there to see them through their final breath. But miles of separation put a big obstacle in financial and time ways.

We do the best we can. Grieve along the way. Remember the good, and take one day at the time.

Let it be

Gift

I lost my car keys

And in looking for them I

Found a butterfly.

Female Black Swallowtail

This butterfly hibernated in my garage since last summer. Two more cocoons to go.
