Straight To Heaven

Feb 20.1912 - Aug 8.2012

I will miss Marie dearly 

and am so happy for the time we got to spend together. 

She was a caring and loving person 

and was the best mother & grandmother in the world. 

Even though she is gone 

her memory will live on in our hearts forever. 

Many of you know that my mother in-law 

{ who I have known since I am 11 yrs}

came to live in my home.

She died peacefully in her sleep 2 nights ago.

I have been living with my ex-husband and her for 5 years now.

With the sale of my home of 28 years

{the longest I have ever lived anywhere}

so.....

I am packing because I am selling the house....

- my daughter is moving out to her own place

{as it should be}

and then my ex-husband who has been a constant for me is going his own way.

It is the end of an era.

Like a sweater,

I feel my small universe unraveling all around me.

This is painful and frighting.

But 

as all of my friends have told me,

it's G-d setting a new path for me.

I will get through this, but I must be permitted to morn the loss of it

before I can start anew.

I will take the unraveled yarn,

roll it up in a neat ball

and knit a new sweater when I get to Maine

AND I WILL 

START A NEW AND WONDERFUL LIFE IN MAINE
