i've told you about the pennies from heaven i have found and my pile is up to 14 now. and i'm sure i've told you how the wind chimes at gary's grave sing to me even when there is not even the slightest breeze. but, i've had a couple more very obvious signs from gary recently.
monday will be 7 months since gary's death. when these "anniversaries" are looming, i get depressed. no two ways about it, i just get a real bad case of the blahs for a few days. yesterday, i had the blahs and figured a few m & m's would help me out so i ducked out of the office and walked a couple doors down to the little store. when i walked in the door, i was greeted by roy rogers and dale evans on the radio singing "happy trails to you". that is one of the songs i had selected for gary's services and he sung it to me often. i think he knows i am blue and that was his way of sending me a pick-me-up.
last week, i found some purple petunias (gary's favorite) growing in a clump out in the middle of the front yard where i have never EVER planted them...
i just had to laugh because last summer gary asked me if i was gonna plant purple petunias. i remember telling him i was kind of tired of petunias and would probably plant something different and that's what i did. he wasn't so sure he liked that idea but as always, he told me to do whatever my heart desired. well, i have purple petunias this year and *I* did NOT plant them. hmmmm.....
and this morning, since i am not at work today and the rain stopped, i went outside to look at my flowers and see if anything needed any attention. imagine my surprise when i checked my window box and i find...
this window box had petunias in it a couple of years ago, striped ones, not purple ones. but this year when i decided to plant rose moss seeds, i dumped all of the old dirt and started with fresh potting soil.
gary's at it again!!! he's bound and determined that this place will have purple petunias come heck or high water!
