A story I can relate to (getting used to things not working quite right and just accomodating, to the puzzlement of those around you). :) I hope this year has been easier for you and you are living according to your own sage words.

My dad died suddenly in January 1997, and we really struggled on all the holidays that year, and for several years after that. It's better these days, but I still get a little sad sometimes around Thanksgiving & Christmas. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing your memories of your brother with us.

And it shows when you can laugh at times like those and smile. I lost <A HREF="http://finnyknits.blogspot.com/2006/04/celebrate-life.html" REL="nofollow">my uncle </A> last year and even though we all know my Aunt is struggling with missing him so much, she is the first one to laugh or throw her hands up in the air about something he did or something he left behind (a garage full of paint cans and drawers full of perfectly untwisted and organized twist-ties, for instance). <BR/><BR/>Life is to be celebrated, and we do so with memories.

I couldn't help but think that maybe it was good that the photo wouldn't upload, because at least for me, it made me go on and read the post since there was no photo to distract me.
