Ten days from today, we leave for Italy. Yesterday we went down to Denver so Lori could have her hair done. I went to REI with Jagger and then we had lunch, while waiting for her.
Our longtime friend and hairdresser, of over 25 years, looked like she aged ten years from her scrape with death a few months ago. You might remember she had something wrong internally, was opened up for a few days, had sepsis, and almost died. She now has to have a hernia operation October 2nd from a hernia she got from her incision. We feel so sorry for her as she lost a bunch of her hair and as I said, just looks way older. Thankfully she didn’t die. Lesson here is life is fleeting, and things can change in a day, or a moment. As you get older, there are lots of these wake-up calls, as most of our friends are older being the same age as us. It’s just part of life, but when you grow up and see some people just going through the motions, it makes you question what to do with your time. As I always say, time and freedom are the most important things now. Not more money, a bigger house, a new car. Spending time with family and doing things you enjoy are the goal. Just my rant for the day.
Ty is off today, and Lori and I are going to lunch in the Village with Ben and Eleni. Might get a few rain showers up here this afternoon. Tomorrow Lori has Katy’s memorial service in Denver and says she can go alone, as she’ll be hanging with the girls she worked with. I might still drive her and drop her off and then pick her up. She says I should stay home and watch football though as she knows it’s a big game. If she changes her mind, I’ll still drive her.
That’s it, have a great day, take care, God Bless.
