Dear Melissa,

     It was nice meeting you the other night. You seem like an interesting person. I hope that we can speak again in person. How is your son, Mark, today? You had said something about he was sick the other night? I'm hanging out doing nothing tonight, as ususual, lol. Talk to you soon.

      What to do with everything after a relative has died is a strange sensation. The funeral had been over a week and there was a whole house full of material things to deal with. Danny had loved to play in his grandfathers attic as a child. There were books and clothes and trinkets of all sorts to play with. There had always been my grandmothers hope chest that had been kept locked all those years. Danny had never asked what was inside. He only assumed there were grandmotherly things that he had never had an interest in.

     Coming out of a bad marriage, not a husband alive or dead had not fantazied for a second about seeing their ex spouse dying a gruesome untimely death. I wasn't any different. Although almost all ex husbands don't go through with their fantasies, it happens.

      I never liked going back to school after summer.

      She was small for her size, but her attitude more than made up for it.

     I had such high hopes after graduating high school, but as they say, life can throw you some curves.
