Updating my voicemail at work this morning, I mentioned the date and it occurred to me it's the 35th anniversary of my one and only wedding.

I last spoke to her about 4 years ago, friendly, cordially, enjoyably, and resolved a sticky little wicket of my mentally ill brother phoning and phoning and phoning her over the years:  news to me, and apologies to her.

Innocently enough, I googled her to find a current email address and got her obituary, instead.

I loved her honestly, completely, mind, body, heart and soul as one should at that point in a relationship.

This month, October, can't leave me soon enough.

It continues to leave me pain-filled and hollow.

I'm with you on October needing to be gone, gone, gone.  We're almost there.  Here's hoping for better months to come.

Oh Joe...this is painful.  Nobody ever really leaves our hearts.  So sorry for your loss.

I read this with much sadness, Joe.
