Ya. Who am I kidding? Peppers ~ The Power of Equality ~The base to that song is so good. I am chillen on a Friday night fresh wine and this here “my machine” that is what Jerri called her lap top or her cell phone. I know she hated this shit and yes I understand why but it is what it is. I had a smack in the face ( sort of ) when I got off work. I had a fucked up day at work it was cray cray busy and add corp. on top ya good times. I called Jerri’s house phone and it got replaced with a message. This number is no longer her number ect. ect. All I wanted to do was listen to her voice. Ya. I know that sounds odd such as me. AC/DC - Problem Child....Most def. Anyway it shocked me. I love hearing her voice and now it’s gone well phone wize it is. But one thing butterflies have been hitting me up this week like no other. I uhave this bamboo in front of the house and there were butterflies all over it this week. No reason. It is not a flowering plant by any means. Just there. Then when I visited Elmer and Jim ( my old neibs - for reals. Elmer is 88 mayby and Jim is 70? ) the butterflies just flew by one after the other. Even they comment on it. Swallows and Monarchs and the other ones my niece knows. One brushed against my face. I know that is Jerri. So I welcome her that way. I just get overwhelmed with loss.
I have been going to the beach. Last year I didn’t go at all. This year I am sucking it in like a tourist. On thuresday when I went for some reason and I don’t know why because it isn’t me in the real me but I left my drivers side window down at a beach parking lot. Grant you this beach parking lot only has 3 spaces. One crip and 2 non crip. With that being said I went and all 3 spots were open I took the next to the last one closet to the street. No one fucked with my car. No one. At. All. Ya. That is where Mom N Dad and Jerri is watching out for me. That is what scares me ever since this happened I have lost a part of me. Not just my heart but my self confidence and common sense. Kind of scary actually. Missed a couple of car accidents just by luck and there are other examples but just the same it is scary to me. I am not use to being not in control. No. I know this will take time but in the mean time it is fucking with me and I don’t like it. I feel like a puzzle that a piece is missing and that piece is Jerri. Gawd I miss her.
Light candles and breath. Yoga, sunshine and watermelon juice. With vodka. Ya baby. not. No. I thought of going out tonight with the shitty day at work but it wouldn’t have solved nothing and to leave Romie no. So here I am and ever so grateful for. This sight has saved me more times than I can count.

There is an old saying that butterflies carry your kisses to your loved ones in Heaven.

Thank you for that...because she is so around me all the time. :)

Here's another: when a cardinal visits your yard, it is a loved one from heaven. I lost my 30 year old son two years ago (thyroid, possibly triggered by past drug addiction to opioids) and two brothers this year, one in March, one in May (one to heart disease, one to cancer). It's tough. You have my sympathies.

I am so so sorry. Yes. I do believe in that. My sister leaves messages to my other sister via fb. No kidding. She left one the day of her Life Celebration. She said she was nearby. I know when you pass your have everyone else bringing you over. You are not by yourself in the journey or the NRG. With that I accept the passing of my sister because she shows up all the time. You just have to look. My heart goes out to you and hugs.

I'd give anything to get a fb message from my brother. What a gift!
