    Thank you for posting the message from Chris. I got choked up reading it.
    Me too. So sad seeing the dates, breaks my heart. When I lost a good friend, people couldn't understand why I grieved for so long, I took great comfort in knowing it was OK to do it in my own way.

    "I can choose to accept or resist my grief, but I cannot end it & I would not want to, because grieving is the other face of love, it is the inevitable consequence of change...of life." Paul Bennett

    Chris, may you find your rituals for comfort & one day may your memories be sweet.

    I'm tearing up reading that quote. It's perfect.

    I got my mystery tube from the giveaway yesterday. My "friendly" postal worker tossed it on my porch. That would normally be fine except that we were having nasty rain storms yesterday along with wind and whatnot. When the wife found the tube it was wet. She text me at work and told me about it. I asked her to open it up to see if the contents were damaged. Fearing the worst I was more than relieved when she said everything inside was dry. There was not one but TWO cool posters inside along with a couple of stickers.
    Karma was smiling at me yesterday for sure :thumbup: :thumbup:

    Yeah they were from Kelly.
    I am still blown away that I won.
    Thank you all for the opportunity and the chance to help out someone in need.
    This proves to me that there is still a lot of good in this world we live in.
    Glad I am able to share this journey through life with you all.
