Anniversary

Yesterday was the 9th anniversary of my father's death. My sister reminded me. She and my mother had taken flowers to the Garden of Remembrance. I rang my mother afterwards. "It's just another day," she said-  which is how I think of it too.

I never remember those sorts of anniversaries until well after the fact ... which is off since I'm normally a pretty sentimental fool. Better not to dwell on that stuff, I think.

I'm useless at anniversaries of every sort.

I remember the dates of my parent's deaths but try not to get overly sentimental about it any more. I just send a thought their way.

I'm hopeless with dates. I even have difficulty remembering whether Christmas is on the 24th or the 25th.
