Or avoided.
Today is one of « those » days, one best ignored or forgotten.
Nothing particularly wrong with the day itself as it started off sunny
enough and fairly warm considering that we are in winter still and that February is usually the month of snow.
There was a lot to recommend it, other than the fact that it was a Monday, that I was meeting my younger son and wife for lunch, that my doctor’s appointment, although late yet again, was “normal” or what can be deemed so when one gets to my age.
But then the date hits: the second of February. This takes me back 26 years and although one would expect the loss to become less strong (and it is), a loss is still a loss and the persons left behind still notice the absence.
Most of the year, one ignores quite easily: the day of, not so much.
However, this too shall pass, to quote one of those much-used, who’s author is long forgotten, quotes.
R.I.P beloved husband, father, brother, friend
