Just another day in the life

08-16-22 Still miss you Kelly

August 16, 2022


Today is the 5th anniversary of the murder of my eldest girl cousin, my dear friend, Kelly. It is hard to process that she has been gone that long already. There were so many moments I wanted to share with her along the way. Life after loss is so damn complicated.

I intended to head to the dealership this morning but had much to do at the office so went straight there instead. I did get a lot done even though my soul wasn’t really in it. I did take time to Google Thule roof rack fails and found there were very few and not in years. The load rating for my system is 165 pounds but I still don’t believe it was installed correctly or maybe it wasn’t the right one in the first place so I reached out to Thule and they have opened a case and will have someone contact me. I decided to find out more from them before approaching the dealership again. I did have the salesman tell me months after when I discovered the side of the cargo basket was scratched that it was off the bosses daughters. I can’t believe they put a used system on my shiny car and sold me it all as a special Kootenay Edition. There will be fallout. My sadness is definitely turning to anger. I shall continue my research and follow through.

I was happy to have plans to go with Tracey to see Bullet Train tonight. We have found we like the 6:20 show on cheaper Tuesday night. It was weird to come out to dusk this time already. The movie was great. Brad Pitt’s character is fabulous to watch. It was bloodier than I usually enjoy but the story lines that wove through it were excellent and I recommend it.

Odd to come home to Sheldon cooking in my kitchen. He has permission but it is still strange for me. I sure hope he follows through on paying and leaving Saturday morning as it would be nice to have my privacy back again. At least he’s a good guy.
