There's a Tear in My Wine!

Yesterday started on a high emotion, Rich and I stayed busy ALL DAY! When evening rolled around we walked the vast span across the driveway, to The Whitten's house next door. We took our positions around their kitchen island and downloaded our day over a few glasses of wine. Ok...let's just be honest here - I think it was 3 bottles!

We cried, talked and hugged through the anniversary of my parents deaths - the sadness of it all and the ironic twist of fate that occurred last December. At one point Leigh Ann says something like..."At least they are together", to which I said, "I don't give damn, they are still not here"!  Yes...I'm really working on that bitter part!

I look over at her and she's crying...hard. Me: "Why are you crying?" Through her 'I've had too much wine and not enough food' stupor..she said "I wish I had parents like yours". That was hands down the most sweetest thing I have heard!

At this point Leigh Ann's little eyes have swollen from crying and I start to laugh. It was just hysterical watching her put ice cubes on her eyes! I warned her that I would blog about it with pictures!



















We laughed. I needed that! We all needed that!

After a few moments on this subject we moved on to something else.

That's just how we roll.

I tried to think of something whitty and funny to put in the blog post, but I honestly couldn't. The day ended just the way I needed it to end.

I love our Best Friends!

The Dark Days

I still have them...just without drinking through them. Sometime I wish I could, but it's not an option if I want to live. Peace
