Another Heavenly Birthday

Today would have been my husband Martin's 73 birthday. During this time I have learned some truths, You never forget but as each year passes you learn to deal with it. It is nice to have the memories. I have a chair in front of my closet opposite the computer chair I sit in. Whenever anyone like my friend Nick comes upstairs and sits in the chair it creaks with the weight. This afternoon at a bit of a down moment the chair creaked and I was glad for the company because right away the heaviness lifted. My evening is also taken care of. I discovered an old series on YouTube that I had not paid much attention to when it was on TV. However, now I find it enjoyable to watch Burke’s Law. I love the murder mysteries and how they are solved. It is amusing to see all the old actors and Dom de Luise is a regular. So while there are episodes I can watch I am enjoying it. For those who have never seen this series, I recommend watching some episodes. The photo is a poetic meme I created

I’m so glad you had such an awesome man in your life. Even though it wasn’t long enough, to have those memories is such a blessing.

@RasmaSandra How wonderful that you have home movies of him to watch, and to be able to hear his voice. I would be so happy to have that of some of my loved ones who have passed. I am sure it's heart wrenching, I am glad you do have good memories of him.

The meme is lovely. Was anyone sitting in the chair when it creaked?

@Kandae11 that was just it there was no one I could see but I knew my husband had come in spirit to comfort me, That frustrates me I so wish he could materialize if only for a moment, One of my cats Freddie was able to see him a while back cats have that talent,

I'm glad you found comfort in the chair. I watched the series when it was on. I enjoyed it. Thanks for letting me know where I can watch it. Do you need to subscribe to YouTube to watch it?

A lovely meme. I'm glad you have such good memories. Happy Heavenly Birthday to Martin. I don't know if I could handle my husband's passing as well as you have handled your husband's passing. Try and have a good weekend.

I know how you feel. Sometimes, my cat Dennis just stares into space and I wonder if he sees my husband. Happy you got the comfort.

@popciclecold it is interesting that our cat Sid who is with his Papa now was so close to him, I always thought it was a male bonding thing, Now my cat Freddie has seen him in spirit and is always overjoyed when he sees him again and when I hear the happy meows I know Martin is with me in spirit

You have such sweet memories. I do love this photo and saying, it is so special, and allows for one to relax and pause-that is good.

I used to love Burke's Law, I think because Gene Barry was in the 1950s film War of the Worlds

Having beautiful memories can make us happy or sad. Happy because we had them and sad because they won't come back. But everything in this world is temporary.
