I wrote this December 15 2014, the day before my friend Ross was taken off life support after a brain aneurysm. I read it last night at his Celebration of life and today would have been his 62nd birthday. RIP my friend Click Here: Far from there

Sleep did not come easy, I am still messed up by the time change, I am missing Ashlée and I am worried about sleeping in. I wake and shower before my alarm rings. A quick coffee and we are packed up and off to the South Terminal. Checked in, paid my extra weight amount and …
Up so early again! Sitting around watching the news and drinking coffee when I convinced Mom we should go to a movie. I looked up what was on at Landmark Cinema at the bottom of the hill and discovered it was only $6 each if we went before noon. Night at the Museum was starting …
Poor Mom made a delicious dinner last night which was ready when I got back from taking care of some banking issues. I barely managed to get through it, show her the blog and fall asleep by 8 pm. I woke up at 2, 4:20, 5:30 and 7:30 when I finally got up. Headed off …
We stayed up way too late the last night and had a hard time getting moving in the morning. It didn’t really matter as the snow blanketed everything and was still coming down. We played Nintendo, goofed around, did laundry and lounged about as Ash did not have to work due to snow. Eventually it …
I woke up and ate this for breakfast, yep that’s right… and then we went here That’s how we roll on my last full day here. If I drank that beer I could equip my life with cool stuff. Ash had made a list of things she felt I should or would love to see …
Woke to the sound of men outside the bedroom door. There has been a leak from the bathroom to the dining room and apparently they were here to solve it. As I had already established that the cause was a split coupling on the shower head I jumped out of bed and went to talk …
Ash was off to work in a horrible blustery storm. The rain and wind was quickly washing away the previous night’s dump of snow. I puttered all day, tried installing new curtain rod for closet but needed a drill, watched Ink Master episodes, cooked little scoops of chili with cheese, dismantled the leaking shower….. Etc. …
Up and slowly at it, we headed to ‘The Rooms’ which I will admit is an eyesore on the horizon to me. Apparently it was built to resemble the military stores of the old days. What a grand deal it turned out to be! Now to be honest, the guy who took our money was …
Up and out on a gloriously sunny and cool day. Ash and I went for breakfast downtown at a very funky restaurant I had the Yorkshire Pudding Bennies… Oh my they were delicious Afterwards we wandered up to Gower Street for a few pictures And then in and out of some stores where Louise met …
Up and drove Ash to work in my jammies. Spent a couple hours on the phone trying to rearrange my trip home. Occurs to me I should leave a day earlier to deal with the time change and get some work done before I head home to the central coast. The Airmiles lady was a …
The morning started off slowly in Jammie’s with food and coffee in bed watching a movie Ash walked to retrieve her car downtown and I got ready for us to go to her bosses for an open house. On the way there we experienced a lovely sight and sound in the cool quiet day, a …
Got Ash off to work, hung out and watched the Kardashians… What a comedy that is… Went to pick up my girl and noticed that this is a town prepared for snow, the meters are against the buildings we went off to buy her new pillows and bedding to start the new year and came …
