Dear, Mom -
I am so sorry we were unable to have a chat today. I was a bit under the weather and did not do much this morning, except call the doctor to see if I could get an appointment, which I did. Unfortunately, the only appointment was during the time that we usually talk to one another. It was good that I went, though. I found out that I have a urinary tract infection. I have been feeling a ‘off’ this week and now I know why. My back started to hurt and so did my ovary, so I thought maybe my old haunt, the ovarian cyst, had returned with a vengeance. Luckily (I guess?), no. Instead, I have an infection that I am now on antibiotics for and will hopefully be cleared up in a few days. So, no need to worry. I am doing okay. I have a headache I am working through, which may make my letter shorter than normal.
Since I stayed home today with the exception of the doctor’s office and picking up my medication, I didn’t really get out to take any pictures. I can find something cute to put up from the past, though:
Here is a picture of Holly and I from a couple of years ago. I don’t often post pictures of Holly because she doesn’t ever like pictures of herself. This one she actually likes. Rockaway Beach 2017.
You and I playing Jenna. You beat the pants off of me. I want a rematch!
You and Dad back in the late 80s. It’s a picture of a picture. Wish is was clearer. Love it regardless.
Since today was Veteran’s Day, I told Holly’s father Doug “Happy Veteran’s Day”. He was in both the Korean War and Vietnam. I think he did about 4 tours in Vietnam, actually. He retired from the Army as he made it his career as a chaplain. I was thinking about Dad and the war and how it must have been very hard on you since you were literally married right before he shipped out. You both preserved his time spent away and were together for 50 years! That is amazing. I love you both so much.
I am going to apologize again and cut this short so I can go to sleep. I still have my headache and am very worn out. I hope we can talk today. We will see if Joy has time!
I won’t ever tire of telling you “I love and miss you very very much”. It’s true. I am in your heart, as yo are in mine. I think of you often and you are in my prayers. I will see you soon, Mama. Big Hugs and Kisses to you!
