This week has been strange. Perhaps I should say, just a little bit off. I have been having strange dreams each night and yes, I dream in color. This morning, my phone would not work and then when I came to my work room, my atomic clock was dead. DEAD. Darn. I loved that clock. These things are not a big deal, but all of them together is just makes this morning, a little off.

Do you ever have days like that? When everything is normal, but just a little “off”?

When things are “off”, I tend to gravitate to things that are absolutely so normal, that it is a little boring.

My normal is Larry. He is my compass. He is my heart. He is everything that is right in this world.

I have lost a few friends because Larry and I are so close. Some people tease us about being squeaky clean and in love. One man, an owner of a restaurant once told us, that at their restaurant one night they pretended to fight like Larry and Robin would fight. {that would be like not fighting at all} He thought it was funny. I was a little insulted but I did not say anything.

The interesting thing is, people forget about the crap we have been through. But that is easy to do isn’t it? To make fun of someone without looking closer to the heartache that they have been through. Each and everyone of us, have our own THINGS. One of Larry’s favorite quotes is: You never know what someone is going through. Please note. He did not say MIGHT be going through. I told you. He is my compass. Even though we might not argue or we hold hands so much that it makes some people uncomfortable……we all have merde that we are dealing with.

Here is a photo of Larry and me. It was taken at My Spot. Whenever I have had an breast MRI, had breast surgery, cancer treatment, need to focus through pain or any other disruptive, uncomfortable, situation…I close my eyes and go to Niihau. This has been my normal for 7 years. The love of my life and Niihau. It may look like paradise,{it IS Paradise} but please don’t forget why I go there.

Where is your Niihau and who’s hand do you need to hold when things are a little off? Have you told them how much they mean to you?

I am going to text Larry right now and tell him that I love him.

Love you.

Me
