That's what today is.I miss him more than I could possibly express, but he knows.
Time dulls the sadness, and these days, I make a conscious effort to celebrate, rather than mourn so much.
If Daddy were alive today, he would be indulging in his passions: humor, writing, cooking, golf and the occasional hunting trip.
He may be gone from my physical world. But he continues to be my rock, my barometer, my mentor and my precious Daddy.
A friend asked me how I intended to honor him today. And this will sound funny to everyone except the friend who asked, and Daddy... but I planned to go to Aquarium World and buy some new fish.
Unfortunately, it flooded severely here with over 6" of rain in about 2 hours, and then it still kept raining... upon saturated soil and already near full bayous. My friend pointed out that I might have lost the fish on the swim home!
Tomorrow, though... I'll select the perfect fish, and bring them home to live.
