Can You Forgive Me?

Hi Grandma:

It has been a long time. I was actually afraid to start talking to you again. I know I have a lot to explain but I love you for being so patient. The first time you went away I had someone to blame. Sheila. The second time I had no one to blame so I blamed you and let you go. I am so sorry. I can't believe the mess my life has been since you left. Well, who is kidding who, it wasn't exactly off to a great start. As weird as this may sound it all seems to be coming together now. I have quit smoking but if you came back from heaven you know there would be a drink and a cigarette waiting for you. And a deck of cards so we could play rummy. Believe me I will be kicking back a drink with you and lighting up a smoke. I miss the nights we played cards and talked. It is hard to lose someone you love more than life. I realize now that there are some losses you just never get over.

Anyway so glad I took the time to touch base. You can bet you will be hearing from me again real soon. And hey if you want to send me a message go ahead it won't freak me out.

Love Jimmy
