What Stever gave to me...

after all he had been through and was about to go through...
in between his father's death and burial...

this is what he gave to me...there are just no words on what he means to me...

funeral flowers...

these were so pretty...and so thoughtful of all who sent them...
isn't it funny how time just keeps going...whether or not you're ready to keep up the pace...Harold had always been apart of our lives...and he still is...just in a different way...and I don't worry about him anymore...cause I know he's safe...and Steve is still hurting...but there's too much to do yet...and he just wants the apartment cleaned out and it over with now...he can't move on until that's done...Easter will be hard because that will be our first official holiday dinner without him...this year will be filled with a lot of "first times"...

Just hanging out...waiting on the guys to come home...

Some of my favorite things:

I started collecting little things...fun things...things I used to have long ago...
and I stuck them in jars...

one item at a time...until I had this...

this was my grandmother's...it used to sit on a shelf in her kitchen...I wasn't allowed to touch it...

which was a good thing...because I didn't break it...and I have it now...

Rebecca found me a cheese dome...its the IN thing right now...they used to be everywhere...no one wanted them and now you can't find them...or cake stands with the lids...and they are going for big bucks on ebay...and I want more!

no dust...the cats can't get to it...and it looks fun!...and January is finally gone...woo hoo...and soon the chocolate will come...double woo hoo...
