This and That

I am such a wimp. According to weather pixie it is 57 degrees right now and I was cold enough that I had to turn on the little heater here in my office. I am sure as the weather gets cooler I will toughen up a bit.

Today is my sister Debi's birthday, she passed away last year on October 12th, so I also have that to remember more fully in a few days. I don't feel horribly sad or anything, just kind of strange. Women will know what I mean, but it is like being someone who normally carries a purse and sticking your ID and money in your pocket and leaving home without it. The whole time you are out, you feel like you forgot something, like there is something missing. That is kind of how I feel. I feel like I should be calling her, making plans for the weekend and such because that is what we had done for years and years. I also find it hard to believe that Friday will mark the one year date of the last time I saw her, it just doesn't seem that long ago. Although I am completely sure she is better off than she was a year ago, I still miss her a great deal and I am sure that I always will.

Now onto something more fun. Christian Mace just sent me a link to HBCC about an Albuquerque UFO sighting. Discs that were changing form into triangles! I would be upset to have missed it, but it sounds like it was north of my house and where I probably couldn't have seen it even if I had been outside looking. Some people have all the luck! I would love to get something like that on film.

I'm sorry to hear about your sister. It's always difficult when it comes to an aniversary. When I think about people that I have lost, I find it difficult to convince myself that they aren't coming back. It seems as if they've merely gone on holiday and I haven't seen them for a while.
Hard luck missing the UFO sighting, maybe next time....keep your eyes peeled, could be anytime, anywhere!
