sweet sheree.

so i've had a big week.
quit my job.
very happy about that.
got a new job.
even happier.
couldn't wait to come blog about it.

but then something terrible happened at work.
we lost our sweet sheree.
sheree was just starting a new life, at age 53
she had a beautiful grand-daughter 6 wks ago.
she busted her ass in college and was finally "this" close to graduating and getting her x-ray degree.
she always always took time to ask about me, jeff, our plans, our vacation, me. me. me.
it was hard to get her to talk about herself because she was always so interested in me. so concerned aobut my happiness.
she never had a negative word, she was so positive about everything.
she got me.
the whole not having kids thing, she understood it.
she never judged me.
she loved everyone and she treated everyone with kindness.
and now she's gone.
i only got to see her once a week or so at work but when i got my new job one of my first thoughts was that i couldn't wait to tell sheree.
but she went to sleep and never woke up.
i hope someday that i can be half of the beautiful person sheree was.
until then i am grateful to her for always being my friend and showing me even with her death that life is sweet.
and short.

peace be with you sweet precious sheree.
