I looked around me and thought
it wasn't supposed to be like this.
We were supposed to bicker and squabble and disagree and make up
have wonderful dinner parties or lunches with our friends
and it was I who did not take vitamins by the handful and who did not exercise one day in my life
who reluctantly ate the veggies and and the salad
it was not supposed to be like this
yet
here I am almost five years hence, alone but for a house full of undisciplined and unwanted mutts,
listening to the annoying sound of the rain rushing off the roof hoping that this time the lights won't go out and that the mutts will do their business outside rather than unpleasant surprises for the morning.
It was not supposed to be this way.

Don't worry - I am here
It's crazy how life doesn't go as you had planned, or things happen that are so unfair.
We all miss Charles dearly, and I'm sorry for the pain and sadness you are feeling, I wish I could take it away.
Love and miss you, Katy
PS.you still need to eat your veggies.
What a sad post, this life is not fair, we know that yet at times we expect to it be. I can not relate to your sadness to that degree but I sure can hear it from you soul. I will pray for peace for you and your mutts!
