Not such a good morning today...feeling sad because we lost a dear friend, a wonderful old man who was a bit of a guardian angel to us...he mentored my partner through a difficult time in a new job and then continued to watch out for us over the years...he was a remarkable man who left communist Romania decades ago, had a great life and friends all over the world.
In some ways it's a blessing that he's gone because he had been very ill for the last couple of years...but we will so miss knowing that he is in the world....he was much loved by many people.
Oddly, last weekend I found a packet of seeds that he had given us a few years ago from his amazing vegetable and flower garden in Queens... Beans, I think they are...I hope they'll grow in Vermont...
This weekend let's all remember to tell the special people in our lives that we love them...
And now I'm passing the wheel back to our wondrous Deirdre for the next week because, guess what? You all DESERVE it!
I'll check in later on...
:P
