First off, I want to ask a question. Does anyone's honey enjoy reading our blog? Just wondering?
I am torn about the journals I have here. I do not want them in the house when I am gone. I don't want anyone to read them. They are not like that nice man's journal. I am afraid to open them myself. I came across a batch of journals I wrote maybe 15 years ago when I was into that. They were when Angie was going through adolescence and teenhood. Ugh!
I was going through my own set of emotionalal gyrations. I wrote feverishly in the middle of the night. One day I will look at them, but I really don't think they will be around for other peering eyes when I am gone.
I do like the idea that man had though. I have started writing snippets of the good things of life in my planner. I have many many wonderful moments to share and pass on. The bad stuff can just dissappear. Who needs that?
Liz, I bet all of that stuff you are coming across of Virginia's must make you feel funny. I don't save a lot of receipts or minutia. But some things I save might leave people scratching their heads and wondering. I too, have my medical records from when I gave birth to Angie, I think. Most of it is organized and boxed up. What the heck do I need to keep that stuff aruond for? I may start going through that stuff and letting it go. How long should a person keep medical records? I never ever go back and look at the EOBs unless it is in the last couple months to document something.
Well, that's all I have to say about this subject for now. But, that old man sure did get me to thinking. And so did you.

Sometimes (and only sometimes) I want my honey to read it but that's all I want. I don't want his two cents about any of it just because I think it is very special and we sisters have a very special understanding of each other. Often, though, Diane, when you write you words so so much more than you realize and it's very touching and meaningful. I share parts but I'm still pretty possessive! Ha! Anyway, do our honeys really 'get' us?!
ReplyDeleteDanny boy is taking me out the LaScala for Valentine's day - sweet honey that he is. He arranged it all himself (which is not his norm). Sweet though and I'm looking forward to it.
Love and hugs and Valentine's hearts.

I was really hoping they didn't. There is no way I would let Bob read it considering he is shall I say picked on by me. I love love love that man, but no he doesn't really get me most of the time. Or at least he seems stymied by a lot of my observations. What ya gonna do????
