    First, I drove past my first ex's place to see if he was keeping it up to his father's standards. He was. He was raking leaves way in the back, and didn't recognize me. He looked OLD!!!

    Second, I crossed the railroad tracks, went up the highway a bit, and drove past the house of the woman who held a "Bible study" with me 37 years ago. It's been years since I was out that way; I almost missed her house.

    She was coming out of a side door, en route to the meeting for field service. She looked frumpy and out of shape, and GRAY!!!

    Where have the years gone?

    I drove home slowly; I would deal with my thoughts later over a hot cup of peppermint tea.

    I just get a tad melancholy this time of year.

    I'd sure like to do a drive-by on my X mother-in-law

    Seriously, though, drive-by's are nostalgic, like driving by my childhood home and seeing it with different eyes.

    Where have the years gone?

    Living, loving, grieving, loving some more...

    Keep your eyes forward, Syl.

    Nodding in agreement with second statement.

    Thanks, dear Tammy.
