I am starting this blog so all of you can know what I am doing and what is going on in my life. This weekend Melody and Steve came and spent the weekend helping me to start going through Larry's stuff. I started with his clothes. I can always use more closet space ha, ha, ha. It was not as easy as I thought it would be. I cried several times but it is done now and we gave them to goodwill and hope they will help someone in need.
I also went through his books. I kept some, put some for a garage sale I plan on having after going through all his stuff and there were a few that I gave to my brother-in-law Billy Lowell. Larry and Billy enjoyed going to air shows. They also enjoyed cars especially vintage cars. Many times on our weekend trips we would see signs about air shows, car shows, air museums and had to stop. They would tell us they wouldn't be very long but after 3-4 hours of sitting in the van Cathy and I were calling their cell phone to see what was taking so long or that we need to go on to get to our destination.
It was a hard weekend but I know that I needed to do these things to start my healing and going on without my best friend and husband. He will always be in my heart and thoughts but I want to go do some of the things him and I use to talk about doing when I could retire.
Friday, May 7 is my last day at work. In a few months (not sure of the exact date) I will move in with one of my kids. I have decided to live part of the year with Melody and her family in Sisters,Oregon and part of the year with Greg and his family in Tennessee. I have never been to Tennessee but looking forward to new expreiences. I am not sure at this point which place I will go to first will have to wait to see what is going on in their lives and who is ready for a new person in their household.
I will try to write something every day or every other day to let you know what is going on. I am not very good with words but will try to let you know the fun things I am doing or planning and the places I am going. Who knows I may find I enjoy writing and write about mine and Larrys 47 years of love, fun and adventures for my family to have to keep and to remember Larry and Sherry Cameron, two people who had a very full and loving life together.

ReplyDeleteI know how difficult it is to go through things. Unfortunately, Oskar left me with about 20,000 lbs of things. I did keep a favorite shirt, just to have around. I wish I were there to give you a big hug.
