"I've seen fire and I"ve seen rain.
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end.
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend.
But I always thought I'd see you, one more time again.
See you one more time again.....
-- James Taylor
Okay, I"m done now. Tinker's on the clean laundry licking her paw after batting about with Indie who is perched ona shelf so he can view outside (but is nodding off). Daisy, who was snoring beside me, is now on the bed, bathing. Then sleeping again. Billy is batting about a pom pom under the bathroom door, and back. Captain is perched on top of Dad's "urn," to better reach the remaining flowers from the memorial service (and play with them. A few of them have been walking about with yellow or orange pollen stains on their sides lately.) Liberty is posed regally atop my pillow, her front paws crossed just so as she watches with her green eyes. It's a windy, beautiful fall day. I've been delaying. This is my first Sunday without M OR Dad. No matter how often or few I visited him, I always saw him Sundays after church. I need to get mail from there today.

I love "Fire and Rain." There is such a sweet sadness in that song. I pray that your sadness will ease with time.--Sheria
