Ahhhhh.. another very quiet day..I put in a couple of ours of day job work this morning to try and catch up. I’m so swamped there.. It felt good to get a little deeper into my inbox.  Around mid morning I put that  away and joined Diane  working around the house putting stuff back up on the walls after the painting project. I’m delighted to say that nothing much happened at all after that.. we took a short walk on the new johnny brokk trail, i took a run.. Diane baked bread.. and that’s simply all that happened. It was the end of the perfect weekend where I had nothing to do.. and did just that…

It’s a strnge time of year for me.. The anniversary of Sam’s passing is Nov 19th, 20 or 21st depending on how you count. I’m not sure how I’ll feel in the countdown to those days.. I’m not sure how I’m supposed  to feel.   In some ways I feel wierd.. because I don’t feel that wierd.. (I know what I wrote doens’t make sense…. but I hope you get what I mean).. I think Diane would suggest that I don’t think about how I’m thinkign so much.. Now there’s soemthign to think about.  

Anyway.. We’ll see how these weeks pass. I’ve decided to take the last 2 weeks of the month off to regroup and be with family. I knwo thta will be a good thing…

No pictures to post today.. but I have this poem that Gabe just had to write about himself for a class. I really like it.. It’s called ‘I am from…”

by Gabe Cohn

I am from big houses and I pods

Trampolines and snowboards

I am from snow covered

Mountains and forests

Nice relatives and laid back families

I am from big booms

Mad science laughs

And corny jokes

I am from empty red bull cans

And endless amounts of candy

I am from mountain tops and rivers

Hand rails and kickers super pipes and backcountry

I am from…

He’s such a cool kid…

OK.. the three of us are goign to watch a movie now.. Hope you all have a peacefull night..
Night all.. night Sam
