It’s a deep, dark sadness that enfolds my soul every year at this time.

Mom and Dad are gone.

Baby sister Mary is gone.

Eldest sister Betty is gone.

Second sister Kay is gone.

Grandparents are all gone.

Aunts, uncles, and cousins live at a distance I never see them.

Older sister the bitch is soulless, cold, and out of my life. Oh yeah… that is actually a high point.

Husband is here but mostly not here. His MS has taken over and rules him. Life with him is not a joy.

So there are black hole soul sucking sad days that take over especially at this time of year.
