ON THE BACK BURNER

I took care of Bob 24/7.  We were together 65 years. then he was gone. I took care of Noodle for 3 years. Then he was gone. I took care of Teddy for 2 months. Then he was gone. I am by myself, completely. But, and here is a big but, it feels good. I don’t have anyone that I have to be responsible to or for. I am liking this, a lot.I almost went to a movie today. I changed my mind because I had to go to two meetings, so I didn’t want to overdue this freedom thing. It is OK to be by yourself. I had the best with Bob , but now it is time to have the best with me.
