I’m sleeping well. That’s a wonderful thing to say after months of getting up every hour on the hour, or half hour on the half hour. The dreams have been very colorful and dramatic things tho. I can never remember them to tell you just that they were there.

I am jolted awake by the fact that Zoe will soon be driving. It reminds me that I haven’t got that many years here myself. Speaking of death, do any of you follow Ronnie Bennett? You could find her at:

She documented the roll of aging in our lives; she cared, and in the end documented her own death. Sometimes I had a terrible time reading her this last year. Yet in the end, she will be sorely missed.

I'm glad you are sleeping well - we aren't aware of the rejuvenating power of sleep until we lose that sleep.
I'm attributing my bizarre dreams to the current political climate, COVID, etc. ;-)

I went to Ronni's website and read a bit. I love that she shared her journey. Sometimes it's the not knowing what to expect that is scary. I will be going back to read more, so thank you for putting it on my radar. My own aging process has caught me by surprise on so many occasions-somehow denial allows us to believe that we will never be THERE even though we know that intellectually.

That's a good photo of G.

Thanks for pointing me in Ronnie’s direction - I’m sad she’s no longer going to be writing.
