Today is Easter and it would have been another enjoyable holiday with my wife preparing to entertain as family came into town. Now it reminds me of how when the weekends come, the distractions of life leave and realization enters. Yes that is when being without her comes on strong. I remembered that it is almost always like that now, for me at least.  I was watching a movie and a David Bowie song ran with the credits. A line went

"My heart's in the basement and my weekends at an all time low".

 I had to smile cause it could be my slogan or perhaps a bumper sticker would be best.  I wonder sometimes if I don't seek distractions to avoid the sorrow, that I keep working not to retire so I have five days off from grieving.    Uh oh !     Could it be a defense mechanism? I try to avoid those damn things.

Feeling the same way, Stephen.  I went to our church's Easter breakfast, then worked in the office for an hour, then Sunday School & church, a business meeting, then home alone for Kale Soup.  Tried calling my kids, no answer.  It's a lonely day.
