Journal entry by Joanne Negstad — Jun 27, 2018
It doesn't take very much. This morning I washed, dried and folded (OK I admit it, the fitted sheet was more stuffed than folded) three loads of clothes but there was no one here to appreciated it. The presence of absence took much of the satisfaction from these mundane tasks.
Joanne and I had season tickets to the Guthrie with C. & L. Tonight I went with C. & L., to see West Side Story. Procrastinating, I'd failed to deal with Joanne's ticket. That empty seat beside me again brought the presence of absence. Yes, of course, every where I go there will be the presence of absence but some times the absence is greater.
Blessings,
Al
