Six Months
http://www.erinseaboltbond.com/2013/05/29/six-months
May 29, 2013. The other night, I dreamed that my grandfather, dead ten years now, was alive. He looked well. He walked. But the doctors were going to take him off a life-sustaining medicine, and he had two days to live. In that dream, I wept. I wept because I knew what it felt like to lose Tom, and I knew we would avoid that pain. At least awhile longer. Waking from those dreams is strange. I wake from one dream and find myself in what feels like another. This entry was posted in Life. You may use these.

The Trumpet of Conscience ». 8220;No man is rich enough to buy back his past.”. January 7, 2009. The Trumpet of Conscience. At the library, so I started that, and it was strangely calming. Once I settled down, I went on to finish my errands in a daze, completely forgetting certain key items on my list and not really caring. I went home and cooked, peeling carrots and parsnips and cutting potatoes and popping a London broil in the oven. I ruined a pan of cornbread. This entry was posted in Musing. The Tru...

January 24, 2013. Well, our weather has finally figured out it’s winter. The morning air is frigid, and the heaters in the buildings at school operate at various levels of competency. One day, they’ll be full blast, and we’ll all be sweating, as we toss aside our scarves and roll up the sleeves of our sweaters. The next […]. Also tagged just thinking. France vs. North Carolina.

Six Months ». May 23, 2013. There’s very little I remember about last Christmas. I feel like I can remember every moment of Thanksgiving, every moment right up until that text, right up until I heard the news. I remember the people who brought us food. I remember Jessica coming over the day it happened, bringing us Chinese food. I can’t remember tasting a single thing. And Christmas. I remember little about Christmas. How many luminaries have I put out with my dad over the years? Six Months ». Post a Com...

June 6, 2013. So, I’ve been doing yoga since the spring semester wrapped. And it always makes me think of San Francisco. While I was out there that month (two summers ago–two!

Mr Thanksgiving Gets Leprosy. Note to Self: ». October 23, 2009. I remember walking into a meeting room in the Student Union at UCF. I think it was the end of my first year of college, if I remember correctly. I was there for another meeting of Sigma Tau Delta, the English honor society. We were to vote on a new executive board. I don’t know where it originated from, but Andy Stanley quoted it in his book,. This from the same author as. It made me think about Sigma Tau. That’s what we had to do. ...What ...

The Back Zapper ». April 6, 2009. Her baby whom she was struggling to care for, to feed. She told us she was ready to give Faida away, was ready to let her go, because she couldn’t handle watching her suffer anymore. She wants to talk to her mother. She wants to have someone to ask questions of, to tell stories to. I remember in college literature classes having discussions about whether or not humans were basically good or basically evil. Which one is our default? This entry was posted in Congo. Also, a...

November 2012 ». January 24, 2013. At home, Jesse and I continue our sriracha obsession, and I have discovered I like breakfast. We’ve been milk-and-cereal folks all our lives, but now we’re eating scrambled eggs with sriracha, egg sandwiches with avocado and sriracha, and breakfast burritos with–you guessed it–sriarcha. (On off days, we have oatmeal or Bob’s Mill seven-grain hot cereal…without sriracha, sadly.). This entry was posted in Life. And tagged just thinking. Or leave a trackback: Trackback URL.

December 2012 ». May 17, 2013. Something I’ve learned about grief: It’s not linear. It doesn’t dissolve in a smooth curve upward. Instead, it comes in fits and starts. Grief eases, gives you a break, a breather, and you think things are getting better, things are looking up, the sun has started to peek through the clouds, the frost is thawing, and then. Like the transition between winter and spring. I got the news by text message. What questions did I ask? What, really, does it matter? December 2012 &raq...
