Long Weekend

This is when we feel like a couple. A long weekend and it is a mix of chores and fun and errands and decisions. We went to Saratoga Springs, watched lots of football, obsessed over home goods for kitchen and bath, set up a wireless network to use the lap tops, made chili and bread together, went to a wake, read for hours and made love.

Even in this loving, cozy time death was near us. We talked about health and illness and aging. Maybe being older helps and maybe cancer was gifting us too with this reminder of time and attention.
