Very sorry to hear about your loss, and hope you had a good Christmas. I understand what you're going through.
Side note: Are you in Sarasota? My Grandfather used to live down there waaay back in the day. His house was not far from where Bee Ridge & Tuttle meet. I LOVE that whole area, and spent many fond memories alongside Siesta Key, Longboat Key, & Turtle beaches.

Anna Maria Island?
Never been (I don't think). Is that north of Longboat Key? I've heard the name & of the place, but don't think I've ever visited in person.
Another favorite spot is Fort DeSoto park about 45-min north of the Sarasota area; just south of Tampa. Have spent many-a-restful hours on a kayak there.

Yes - it's the north end of Longboat Key. My sister lives in Bradenton so we've spent a lot of time in that area too. Fort DeSoto is nice except we had a run-in with a family of raccoons there once....Never been (I don't think). Is that north of Longboat Key?

She died 6 years ago, so the scar tissue is pretty thick now.
I was just driving down for the weekend for a sporting event. I think it was the first time I had had any long period of uninterrupted time since her death - when I was at home I was busy so could distract myself from really thinking about my loss.The regatta is actually in Bradenton, adjacent to I-75 at University Park. I go down at least once or twice a year.

So I guess the old rule about threads being closed after 5,000 posts doesn't apply to the new format?
I think we checked that before didn't we?

That's another plus for the new format.

I'll take a cookie!
I was a bit disappointed none of my friends made my favorite peanut butter cookies with hershey kiss on top in their Christmas cookie baskets. I would make them for myself - but then I would eat the entire batch - I like just getting one or two in a plate of cookies I don't eat. I need self control forced upon me.

I'm purging the house of leftover Christmas desserts today - way too many sweets in the house!
On a related note, I've been online window shopping for a dress today for my son's wedding, and let me just say that there's a whole lot of ugly out there!
