We said everything we needed to say to each other while he was sick...I consider myself very lucky to have had the chance to say what needed to be said. I think someone dying tragically and out of the blue would be so much harder to accept and come to terms with.
I am sending good thoughts to your mom...Hope she is doing better.
You certainly can tell that you don’t follow the Bucs...They haven’t worn orange for years....except in a few throwback games..when they would wear the creamsicle uniforms...they wear pewter and red now. I think they changed their uniforms around the time they built the new stadium.
My late husband was a huge Bucs fan....even through their 26 loses in a row. He had the number 63 orange jersey..Lee Roy Selmon’s...which he wore every game day...We lost that jersey on a family vacation..He never let me live that one down...in his good-natured kidding way that he had.
I will be watching the game...at my daughter’s home and I will bring the orange towel that I still have...with me...And, root for Tom Brady..and the Bucs...He (my late husband) would be tickled at that...and I like to think that he would laugh about..the family rooting for Brady...
Our family motto always was the only thing better than the Bucs winning..is the Patriots losing...Well Brady, did prove me wrong..I always thought he was lucky to be on such a good team...for all those wins...Hee definitely proved me wrong...
Yesterday, I did call the number back that showed on my caller ID. It said the number you have reached is not in service at this time....certainly is annoying.

Melody...Thanks for your kind words.

I hope to never lose someone in that way.
