Now what?

Monday, February 14, 2011

I'm starting to accept that I'll never see [my girlfriend] again. It's like being widowed for a third time. I guess that we had enough great years to make it worthwhile. There aren't enough years left to try for a fourth. I'm 84. Anyway, she has spoiled me for anyone else.

My brother, Jerre's, cancer reminds me that my own years are limited. I don't know what I should do with them. "I haven't got time for the waiting game."

Being where people are doesn't mean that I can meet them. I haven't solved that one yet. Senior Center trips could be a start. Dance lessons? A lot of boats have sailed.
