To my dearest friend, KD –

Hi, hon, and how are you going? I felt really tired today after visiting the specialist so I wound up spending another day lying around and reading. Unfortunately, since I didn’t go to work today my timesheet will miss the deadline at Payroll and I will again receive a half pay, just what I need right now when I have no refrigerator, etc. Oh, yeah – another thing happened today – when I got to the doctor’s office and parked the car, I couldn’t get the passenger-side window to close (it was raining a little, of course). Finally managed it by pulling/pushing it with one hand and using the other on the switch (of course they are electric windows).

Do you know the book "The Little Prince"? I wouldn’t be surprised if you did. I can’t find my copy but I will get it out at the Library so I can quote you a couple of lines. Another missing book – "The Prophet" by Khalil Gibran that my mother gave to me when I was a teenager and can’t find anywhere.

You felt close today but I do keep feeling overwhelming gratitude that what has happened in the last couple of days here didn’t happen in 108 if I had come up there. It would have been B-A-D for sure if it had. Honey, I’m pretty sure I know what happened there on the 10th, 11th and 12th and I am completely OK with it. You should have trusted me a little. As it was you only had a partial glimpse into who I am you didn’t know that you could have relied on me, maybe like you could have relied on no one else. I know this all sounds a bit cryptic but I mean it to be so because I’m sure there are only a few that truly know what went down.

That’s all I’m going to write for now, KD. I missed you heaps today (like every other bloody day) but, so far, no tears.

Love you muchly –

- Susan
