We have been thinking about changing our phones out since our "new every 2" is in a couple of months. That prompted me to go through my phone list and cull out the wrong numbers and such. It amazes me how often people change phones and numbers sometimes.

And then I saw it.

Her number.

Jackie.

It made me so sad I wanted to cry. I haven't seen her in nearly a year. She won't be calling me again.

I really miss her.

Jackie died last summer. ...on what was supposed to have been the 'luckiest' day of the year. 07/07/07

My heart is broken.

I haven't been able to delete her name and phone number so far. I totally planned on finally deleting her information this time. It's as if leaving her name and number in my phone is a link. She isn't gone as long as I can still see her there.

I still don't know if I'm ready to let her go.

I just can't do it yet.

I am still sad about losing my father-in-law 2 years ago...sometimes it seems like I completely forget he's not with us anymore.

take care!

Aww. I know how you feel.

Maybe I'm weird but if it would comfort you, why not keep her information and add it to your new phone?

Almost like your way of paying tribute to her.

*hugs*
