today i got a notice from the office

well, the desk around the corner where the volunteer folds such things...
it was telling me that Linda's name will be read at services on Friday, April 10. Even though i know that today is 11 months, and next month will be a full year, seeing that in print is very difficult.

and yet the sun is shining. there will be great music for Rock Shabbat tonight. my pants fit better (or the bigger ones don't fit anymore). so things are looking up in many ways.

and yet ...
how incredible it is that almost a full year has gone by...months filled with individual counseling and now the grief support group. people in many areas of my life who have been so supportive, helpful, etc.

but so many things have not moved in that almost year. maybe it is time to think about spring cleaning with a vengeance, now that there is daylight later and it will continue to get better in that regard.

but it did hit me hard to see things in black and white. i'm not much of a black and white kinda person. but there is that letter. the name of your dear departed loved one will be read at services on Friday, April 10. services will be at 7:30 pm. there it is.
