Jan. 4th, 2026 08:31 pmShe said her heart was going a thousand miles an hour – waiting for news that wasn’t going to be good. She told me he was ”always, ALWAYS" clean-shaven but for the past few days, he just couldn’t. And then she
tried to pay me for ”a cup of coffee with just a little cream”.
It reminded me of when the one time in all recorded history, my mom’s bed was left unmade. She never returned home.

I love the rich running day, but I do not desert her in whom I lay so long, I know not how I came of you and I know not where I go with you, but I know I came well and shall go well.
