June 27, 2018. Three months since Adam died. Unbelievable. My day started off pretty gloomy. I think I was focused on the fact that it’s been three months, and my nerves were shot. I was restless, tossing and turning in bed, but I could not bring myself to get out of bed. My co-worker / good friend Reagan texted me shortly after 8am but I did not get back to her until after noon. She had updated me on a few things, and invited me to lunch. I told her that I was struggling to get motivated, and that I would pass on lunch. She said, “I’m sorry you are struggling today. Let me know if I can do anything. You’re sure getting out for lunch wouldn’t be good for you? No pressure though.” Mom, if you are reading this, I am sure you want to give Reagan a huge hug right now! Reagan, if you are reading this, THANK YOU!!!!!
I changed my mind, quickly threw myself together, and met her at Dahlia Cafe a little before 1:00.
We enjoyed a delicious lunch. I got her caught up on my recent adventures, and she got me caught up on things going on in her life. As we were leaving she told me that she was going into Cedar Park to run a few errands. I was just going to go home. She said I could ride with her, and I did! We went to Hobby Lobby and Target, then came back to Liberty Hill. God knew just what I needed today. Reagan was my angel, just when I needed her. It did me good to get out for a few hours. It was a gorgeous day!
When I came home, I made more progress on cleaning the back bedroom…..ah, it feels so good to make progress! Just a bit more work and I should be completely done with the room! Yay!!
Around 7:30 I went and grabbed supper from Major’s, came back, ate, showered, and here I am.
Two things I want to share before I close. They are both posts I came across on Facebook today. The second one is from my former counselor, Sheila.
This second post is very deep, in my opinion. It is one of those that I will probably have to read several times before I can completely digest it. Perhaps it will speak to you in some way…..and I hope that you recognize angels in your life when they come along! 🙂
