Alone again

My husband of 17 years passed away on January 8, 2011. I was 39 years old when we married, all accustomed to a life alone. When he knocked on my door, Prince Charming literally knocked on my door, my loneliness ended. Our marriage wasn't perfect, and sometimes my prince was not so charming, but the loss is sometimes unbearable. He loved me and supported me in every way possible. He was proud of my music and my poetry. He even tried to like NCSU sports. The last cap he wore was a Wolfpack cap and he was amazed at how many positive comments he got on it! So, I am alone again. Not sure there is another prince around the corner. If there isn't, that's okay. I can make it on my own with the help of my puppies, my friends and my family. Just got to get to work on the bucket list. As John Lennon said, "Life is what happens while we're busy making other plans.
