The day has passed.

So, I didn’t do the in memoriam ad after all.

My friend gave me the idea to start an email to friends/family and to have people answer some questions and share their memories of my DH. It was a fabulous plan. Instead of focusing on all the negative stuff, I got to read about him through others. I will eventually post some of that stuff here but it will take some time to sort and edit through it all.

This was the first year that I haven’t been out of my mind during the seasonal change and the deathaversary. I think having the baby helped to keep my mind occupied but you just never know when it will pop up.

Two strange things happened the day before the 7th.

1. One of our smoke alarms started beeping as if it needed new batteries. Then it stopped. Then it started again. FRU got it down and took out the old battery to make it stop beeping. Um, no. It kept beeping for another half hour or so. I am not sure how that is possible but who knows?!

2. Since it is late, I am drawing a blank on the 2nd thing. I will try and remember and post it later. What a space cadet am I?!
