A Day With David

What you say A Day With David - How could that be? Well it started out in church as simple as that. The place we love to worship with the family that loves us, supports us, prays for us and cares for us. They are related by the blood of the LAMB - they are our family in CHRIST. Last Sunday I sat in a different pew and Carter Dean said "Tata, you need to sit in your place." Today I did and it felt normal, right and I was home. It's the same pew that D, Bo, Lori and I shared for years but today it was just me, but I didn't feel alone or lonely.

After church it was off to the cemetery for a solitary time at D's gravesite, only today I didn't get to stay long because there were others at the cemetery. Today I felt drawn to the cabin. Just needed to go to a place that D and I hold so close and dear to us. That one special place that we love to spend time at. Off I went for a wonderful Sunday drive, spent some time with my friend Rick at his place - good news about his wife Betty she is cancer free. GOD is so good.

The cabin is beautiful

I spent a few hours do routine maintence, cleaning cobwebs, dusting, etc. It was really clean thanks to the Dickards, but there is always something that needs to be done. After chores I just sat and enjoyed being there for a little bit. It's a great place to be with D.

Off the Combs for the best burgers in the State - the only thing I needed was some salt -

Bought my burger went on to Terra Studios for a solitary lunch at a picnic table in the park. Watched people, listened to the sounds of families and just felt D's presence with me - I was alone but not lonely.

Came home by way of Sam's - had to pick up stuff for the pool - Ollie the pool dog and Tac the cabana cat don't do any of the chores around the pool, so that leaves me. The three of us hang out around the pool together, they watch me work, Ollie barks and Tac meows to let me know if I'm doing it right or not.

D would be proud of me, I got the four-wheelers out of the shed, washed them off. Of course, I got D's 4-wheeler hung on the rail dead center and had to push it off with my little 4-wheeler. Then with a lot of pushing and pulling SUCCESS !!! Only tore up one spot in the yard in the process. That would not make D happy - I laughed about it and talked out loud to him about it. It was such a D kinda day. Finished up got the 4-wheelers back in the shed without further mishap, the pool cleaned and chemicals in.

What a wonderful day to spend alone but not lonely - D was with me every step I took. I felt his presence and his love all day. No sadness only happiness, no pain only joy. I love spending Sundays with my husband.
