From my desk: 12/29/2024

This is a picture generated by AI, not really my mom or relatives.

I thought it was the 28th today! I guess I missed it. Well, what did I miss? Nothing positive. On 12/28/94 my mom passed away, thirty years ago now! On 12/28 around 2010 or so, my mother-in-law passed away. Then on 12/28 about 4 years ago, my aunt, my mom’s sister, passed away. How weird is that? I saw on the news that Jimmy Carter died today. I almost couldn’t believe there could be another on 12/28, hence me realizing it was really 12/29. Anyhow, it is a sad day but its been so long that it isn’t as hard for me as it had been in the past.

Next week I am bringing Lindsay, my daughter, on a 4 day cruise to the Bahamas! Back on MSC so I can see if all of their ships are good. I sure hope so!

Almost New Years Day…Hope it is good for everyone!

  1. Christine your string of grief on the 28th touches me. I am just recovering from the holidays that marks the 4th anniversary of my mother passing. We are leaving for a cruise to the Caribbean (14 days) that is going to be a test of our sea-worthiness! I hope your trip with your daughter is wonderful and relaxing!!

    • Enjoy your trip as well! The first time I went on a cruise, I got information from another woman to bring along that meclizine or whatever Dramamine is and my husband and I actually took one every morning as a preventative just in case but now I don’t need it anymore, but it’s just mentioning itsafe travels. Can’t wait to see your pictures. Happy new year.
