I finally sorted and put away much of the paperwork I brought home from Mom’s last year.

Godspeed, John Glenn.
Memories can provide a rosy glow
I found a note from my brother, Michael, on the computer this morning. It said he didn’t want anything, that he was missing me. He was also missing his mom and dad and the way things used to be.
