Three Cups of Coffee Later...

And so Valentine's Day is fast approaching, and I have already received a gift.  From my boss.  She bought Roberta and me yogurt coated raisins (she's very health conscious, you know).  They were very good!  And since she was so sweet, I have decided to get her something for that special day - The Perfect Man.

She has been single for 10 years and has no desire for a serious relationship, but I found HIM (she would like that, too. Health Information Management acronym!)- in Walmart of all places.  He comes in a box.  He's buff.  He's chocolate.  And I do believe he's perfect, but not necessarily good for a lasting relationship...after all, one good binge and he would be gone forever.  But ah, the memories...she might find those worth it. ;-)

The last few weeks have been full, so I tried to get a little caught up on journals and email  today.  If I haven't been by, it isn't because I've suddenly stopped reading for no good reason.  My mother's doctor told her last week that she needs dialysis.  Well...she has decided against it.  She has fought to live for a long, long time and she is tired...all we can do is accept and respect her decision, and be with her while we can.

There is a lot I could write about her.  How brave she is. What a strong woman she has been.  How she has become sweeter with time...but I just can't eulogize her. Not now.
