I’m celebrating a little early and starting my holiday today. This is the one of those pro’s of being your own boss and I’m taking full advantage of it this week. 🙂 In some ways, Memorial Day always feels a bit odd to me since I don’t deal with loss very well. It’s not my nature to always want to remember. But I know the holiday isn’t just about loss; it’s celebrating the lives of those we have lost. And like everyone else, I’ve lost loved ones too.
To great-grandparents, grandparents, aunts and uncles and my beloved, Emeril and Morimoto (yes, they are cats – #NotAshamed and #ProudCatMom). I miss and love you and am so grateful to have had you in my life. I am a better person because of you.
I am going to celebrate with some beach time, manning the grill and hanging out with my family, but I’ll also be remembering too. Thank you to all those I’ve loved and lost for all the great memories, until we meet again …
Wishing everyone a safe Memorial Day weekend. I’ll have a new post on June 1st.
