On the way home from visiting Sam's grave. It's her birthday.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Sending lots of warm hugs.

Tidying up a bit and decorating for the holidays. There may or may not be excessive marzipan munching involved.

Well, I can't say it's any easier; it's just not so hard anymore. It's confusing, because there's other things going on in my life which are looking to start paying off, in fact they're already changing rapidly; yet, while I want to move forward, and I know she wants me to, I still can't help those little pangs that she's not sharing these things with me. It's like driving with one foot on the gas and one on the brake, while in both forward and reverse gear, and steering left and right at the same time. Days like this and xmas just bring it into sharp relief.
She would have been 38 today. Yeah, a nine year age gap is nothing.

Thanks, I really do appreciate it.

I see - that sounds promising though, great to hear you have some positive changes in life. My parents are 9 years apart btw., I don't think it's very unusual

Well, if you were here, I'd be dragging you over here for a nice dinner and we could just hang out and do whatever.

I've been hanging out with the kids.
It's really nice to have family around.
But now I need a coffee break.
Surely I wasn't so loud when I was a kid. :-)
