He said that seven other people have signed up for the same thing. "Put it in your will," he told me, making the gesture of writing. And I cried and cried, thinking of my ashes being spread in Cozumel in the sea and wondering which of you would do that and hoping it would be all of you. Sprinkling my ashes in that clear blue sea, watching them sink to the bottom, the tiny fishes coming up to taste them. <br />I was crying so hard that Glen was a bit embarrassed and Rogillio put his hand on my arm. <br />Cozumel. Sprinkle my ashes in Cozumel. Don't even bother to make diamonds out of them. I would just as soon end up as angel-fish poop. I am quite serious. <br />And then eat some shrimp quesadillas. With quacamole. And salsa. Lots and lots of salsa.<br />Remind me. I will tell you my password.Ms. Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09776404747858099919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6345761564418354639.post-70923420745362274512009-07-30T14:35:04.001-07:002009-07-30T14:35:04.001-07:00SB- Sharks in a pool and Savannah?

Never saw mice though, and I hope I never will.<br /><br />Petit Fleur- Thank you for sharing.<br /><br />Gingermagnolia and Lady Lemon- yes, the love notes are too sweet. They make me yearn for a Mr. Moon of my own. Well, not exactly a Mr. Moon, he is my stepfather, but you know what I mean.<br /><br />Also to anyone who wants to know: the Moons will return this Saturday around 8:30 PM.

It sounds like a terrific idea to me. Now I want a Mama diamond with the Moms ashes in it.

I've got a spot picked out and everything--near my favorite bar.<br /><br />Love,<br /><br />SBSarcastic Bastardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17116577711704241625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6345761564418354639.post-7991812409195941632009-07-29T11:26:17.504-07:002009-07-29T11:26:17.504-07:00SB- Thank you!

It was just so weird because I had that awful dream, like you looked inside my sleeping head. A friend of mine told me once that he thought that if we lived long enough all of our worst fears would come true. At first I thought "Really? I'm going to be attacked by sharks in a pool?" but then I realized that my deepest dread is the death of my parents. If I am lucky and live long enough I will have to go through that, it's the way it should be. Far better they go before me.<br /> Another funny thing about that is the other day I was thinking that Mama should leave us the password to her blog in case anything should happen to her we could let the blog family know.<br /> And you want to hear morbid- when and if Mom does die I want to get her remains crushed into a diamond (they can do this, for something like 10,000 bucks) and wear her around my neck. The other kids can fight over the house, I want the Mama diamond.<br /><br />Mama! - How was your birthday! I'm so glad you liked my post! We miss you so much, but we are so glad you are getting your heart filled up again. Now go have more fun. Loving you. xoxox<br /><br />CMe- I love it when people tell me I look like Mama! When I was a kid I wanted to grow up to look just like her because she is so beautiful.

Yo...And the internet people wait for her too. :) <br /><br />You paint a wonderful picture with your words. <br /><br />Maybe it's morbid of me, and forgive me if you don't think this way, but it makes me feel sad for the day (a long way off) when she's gone for good and you kids will have to clean out the house and miss her. My mom and stepdad went to Alaska a year or two ago and I couldn't help but think of how it would be if they weren't coming back. <br /><br />But I don't have to tell you to appreciate her :)Steph(anie)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01345590378662641435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6345761564418354639.post-3397543208418545892009-07-28T21:26:34.442-07:002009-07-28T21:26:34.442-07:00!Holy Zinnias!

Everything- the plants, the dogs, the chickens, the hallway, the kitchen, her garden- know that she is away, and it's just not the same without her, and Daddy too. <br /><br />Really lovely, beautiful post. I love you my sweet May. <br /><br /> And I just have to say that it makes me so happy how Mama and Daddy have written love notes on post-its, which are found all around the house. (There is one on the counter near the laundry room, by the watermelon seeds, that made me cry today.
