I had a dream about her the night before last. In the dream a bunch of the family was going shopping at a big mall in the Dallas area. We had to park our car in a parking garage, and then walk a couple of blocks to get to the mall. As we are walking in this crowded area, I noticed an older white car coming down the street in the wrong direction. The car was moving real slow, and weaving back & forth. All of a sudden, I realized it was Mimi. She was trying to find us, and she was lost. We were able to safely stop her and get her out of the car. She was so happy to see us! I remember hugging her and not wanting to let her go. That's when I woke up. Dang it, I wanted a few more minutes to hug her and talk to her.
Dreams can be so dumb sometimes. But other times they can give you a moment you want...or need.
So I decided to post a note about Mimi on Facebook. I did it for myself, just to make me feel better. I didn't expect all the responses it got. Some people posted nice comments about what I wrote. But what I didn't expect was to hear from several friends I hadn't heard from in years. That was really unexpected, and fun! I even had some folks at work come up to me the next day and tell me how nice the Facebook posting was.
Happy birthday Mimi. I miss you.
