Easter time and nowhere to go...

And so we stayed home again, as usual, these holidays of lately, which seems to be our practice.
Just the two of us again, sadly erroneously at the winter time of our lives, because I truly thought at this point we would have made up for all of our losses of deaths with a renewing with in-laws and grandchildren and extended family members that would be more than we could count, but no it has not happened and I don’t see it occurring in the near future either.

Hubby and I did manage a delicious meal with all the trimmings, and even cut up that pineapple too (and set the top aside for planting within the next two days) and we added that to a fresh fruit salad including apples and bananas.

Loneliness is already rampant and clutches at my heart.
How did this turn into this?

When we were young and callow fellows we knew not what to expect and had armies of loved ones all around us, but alas they have all moved either far away or perished by death, and that is why I am glad that holidays come in at only one day at a time.
More than a day of this and I fear it would consume me with tragic depression.

I do truly hope that you all have enjoyed this joyful week of Passover and or Easter; religiously they are so closely involved with one another that they are nearly one; you do know that one could not exist without the other?

Anywho, I am the last one to be telling you about any religious beliefs, since I am not at all that well versed in them, my Sunday School days are way behind me as well as any other education in that arena.

All I do know is that is many have been celebrating and I say more power to you for believing in anything in these hard times. I personally am always questioning.

Please dear readers let joy into your lives, and never ever take anyone for granted that you care about; life is way too short.

Good night to all and to all count those blessings and we will too!
