I stayed with Roger at the hospital until late last night playing a Scrabble card game. I didn't want to go back to an empty apartment. I thought with Casey and Taylor gone it would be lonely there. Well, it is quiet and tidy, but it's not too bad. The fridge is full and there are cheerful Christmas decorations everywhere, welcome reminders that there is always love and connection nearby - only a click or a phone call away.
On to the task of the upcoming week: get Roger well enough to come home and keep me company there. I can live with that.
We're always with you in spirit. Soon Roger will be tucked up in your tidy little apartment. Candi, are you READY to be nurse, cook and maid?
ReplyDeleteI hope he's home with you very soon, Candi. Hang in there (are you getting sick of hearing that!?) and know we are all thinking of you daily.
ReplyDeletemiss you guys already! We had such a nice visit...It's been too long, can't go that long again!!
ReplyDeleteCandi and Roger,
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear about your kids visiting--what a treat for all of you. We're thinking "growth" thoughts for you here on Pine Street.
