You seem to come to me at weird times. Mostly when I am driving or cooking and also grocery shopping. I always think of you when I am perusing the steaks. HA HA! I always wants to call and ask you how to cook a certain cut of beef. Why is that? I made beef and tortellini stew for the first time a few weeks ago and it turned out great. Mom really enjoyed it. So did Aaron and Dwayne. I know you would have liked it too.
I went shopping a few weeks ago and got some nice clothes. I brought them to the house to give a fashion show and I really wish that you had been there to see me "model" too. I know you were/are proud of me for the weight that I have lost. I remember getting excited the first time I was able to buy smaller clothes and I got to come over and show you and mom. It might be silly, but it made me feel good! :)
The cruise is fast approaching for mom and Janice. I know it's going to be super bittersweet for them to go, but I REALLY feel that it will be good for both of them too. I know you want mom to go and not let you stop her anymore. She needs this. She has EARNED this. I know you would agree with me. You both earned it. 45 years in this day and age is nothing to shake a stick at. I know you will be with her in spirit.
You are really keeping me going with this diet. I have been struggling lately. I want to just stuff my face with EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING, but you were so proud of me, and I don't want to let you down. It's one of the last things you said to me.... that I looked good and that you were proud of me for sticking to the diet. So now, whenever I have the urge to stuff myself I remember what you said and resist the temptation. I just wish you could be here to see me hit my goal weight. Considering everything going on lately, your passing and the holidays, I managed to only gain like 3 lbs. Not to shabby if you ask me. I am proud of myself for managing to keep the weight off. I have 12 more to go until my goal and I could win $50 from Neil Dearwester - we have a bet going to see who can get to 60 lbs first.
I wish mom could get a new job. Please help her. She is waiting to hear from Maryann's place, who is offering a full time position, with benefits. She needs to get away from Randy. He has been good to her, but he is too temperamental and things aren't improving there.

Watch over us and if you could pull some strings for the lottery or a job for Aaron, that would be FANTASTIC!
