Memories

For several years, I had been creating a collection of photo collages and hanging them in the stairway between the first and second floor. When we had our mattress replaced a few years ago, we had to take everything off the walls in order to get the mattress up the stairs (it's a tight squeeze with a 90 degree turn). Since then, the wall needed repainting but other chores were higher on the priority list. While Mom and I were cruising, however, Ed repainted the walls and ever since I've been updating the existing collages and making new ones.

This process has led me to multiple reviews of my many photos albums, and hence has led me to think a lot about all of our friends. I know that many of you occasionally follow this blog, and I wanted to take advantage of that fact to let you know how dear you are. I wish I had the time to write each and every one of you to let you know how much you mean to me and how often I remember the fun times we've shared. There is so much happiness and joy in the photos I've been looking at, as well as so much discovery of new people and places. I am truly blessed in many ways, and you add so much pleasure to my life. Thank you. I'm looking forward to many more years of new adventures and quiet moments together.

(and I promise to write you soon!)
