Your best friend from a land far, far away misses you very much too.
I'm so sorry about your son. I can't even imagine how hard it must be.
Well, you need to replace 72 on the list now!
I didn't have the courage to say this before I read your list, but now you have inspired me:
I don't plan on ever cooking a turkey, either.
We should meet in Italy to discuss this further.
i enjoyed the piercing i saw!your ears looked good too....glad i had the chance to laugh with you..too bad we missed the band(big mike)
Your other mother misses you and " your best friend who isnt any more " will be again someday, when she finds her way back from the hell of drugs. Keep writing, share your grief, put into words what we all feel at different times , pain, love, crazy happiness, and your wonderful sense of humour. I never noticed the spock ears but forever have an image of 2 girls, one blonde, one brunette, walking down the street with the skinnest legs I ever saw.
I just want to share my experience and testimony here.. I was married for 6 years to my husband and all of a sudden, another woman came into the picture.. he started hailing me and he was abusive..but I still loved him with all my heart and wanted him at all cost…then he filed for divorce..my whole life was turning apart and I didn’t know what to do..he moved out of the house and abandoned the kids.. so someone told me about trying spiritual means to get my husband back and introduced me to a spell caster…so I decided to try it reluctantly..although I didn’t believe in all those things… then when he did the special prayers and spell, after 3days, my husband came back and was pleading..he had realized his mistakes..i just couldn’t believe it.. anyways we are back together now and we are happy..in case anyone needs this man, his email address okaforspiritualtemple@gmail.com his spells is for a better life. again his email is okaforspiritualtemple@gmail.com
