(103,856 posts)Steve and his two brothers recently spent 3 weeks here with me. They had time off due to covid, so they made a gorgeous bathroom for me, created a magnificent pantry and a new laundry room.. they were all under mom's care again and we talked about MY eventual demise..where things were..like insurance policies, bank accounts. etc..
I cooked healthy meals for them every day for 3 weeks..and I also joked with them about our "short life genes".people in our family do not usually live very long..
Little did I know that in a month the baby of the family, would be gone at 41.
They did not completely finish the bathroom so Steve and Maria were planning to come back for a few days ..I called Steve the evening of Oct 1st so we could have a few laughs about trumpies covid diagnosis, and to get the dates set for their visit..Oct 23-27. were the dates.
He would be gone by 7 pm the next day.
November was a blessing..at least I no longer see STEVE & Maria on my calendar..couldn't bring myself to delete it
