28 December 2009
I have an odd sense of déjà vu about this photo tonight. I think it is probable that one or both of us has taken a shot similar to this in the past and used it on The Daily KRuMB. But, tonight, after curling up in my chair and finally getting warm for the first time in hours, I refused to leave my little cocoon to take a photo. So, I simply leaned over and looked up. This is the inside of the antique floor lamp that sits beside my chair. It provides a beautiful warm glow to the room and a considerable amount of light immediately beneath its shade. And, it’s pretty. 
On a completely different note, I had an odd realization today—just now, really—when I looked at the calendar, and did some math. Exactly 25 years ago today, I got married for the first time. Roger and I were married nine years when we divorced and were very close friends at the time of his death. It’s just very surreal to think I could have been celebrating a silver wedding anniversary today if life had unfolded differently.
Funny, I don’t feel that old!

What a time to log on to your website to see what it is all about……and you mentioned your time with Roger. Unbelieveable that it was 25 yrs. ago.
Betty: It is indeed unbelievable that it’s been 25 years! And, perhaps the most notable thing of all is that you and I have maintained such a special friendship! I am so grateful for that—I love you! And thanks for visiting The Daily KRuMB! Please come back as often as you like! It’s the very best way to keep up with the craziness of my life.

“age can not wither her, nor custom stale her infinite variety…”
25 years? so…what, you were married at 13 or something?
