Thank you for the kind words. I'll admit to adding the Nemo bit as much for you as Barbara! It was one of my sister's very favorite movies, too, and it made me smile to quote from it! She was so very very Dori! She had also been a hospice nurse and had such a great attitude about death, so that has helped us all.

The move is closer to other family and old friends as well, so that helps QUiTE a bit. Still, I've lived here for 17+ years, and it comes on the tails of a kid graduating college, another high school, one getting married (all within 14 days) and then moviing across the country with her new husband. HOLY EMPTY NEST! But, I'm trying hard to focus on the positive things ahead!

I'm so sorry about your friend. So so incredibly sad to lose some dear to you, especially like that. (If it was in a fire in KC, then you need to message me on my wall.)

You are welcome to message me on my wall; I certainly don't want to hijack Barbara's thread! But, as you said, so many of us understand, at least on some level, her struggles, and want to reach out and help in whatever way we can.

HUGS!!!!!!!!! xoxo

How about this time....

Baby steps, get on the bus, Bob.
