    It's been awhile but here is an update. It's been hot here in Illinois. Over a hundred a couple weeks ago. It's still in the upper 90's. I had been real because Gerry Bonar is still sick and in the hospital. He's doing slightly better now. I went to see a psychiatrist and he prescribed me some medicine that has really been helping. I feel so much better now. It's like the heaviness is gone. Also he was concerned about my weight so he had me tested for thyroid problems. The bad news is I have one but the good news is that's why I haven't been losing weight. I was so hard on myself but now I know what's going on and can get treated. I wasn't published by that magazine but I'm going to try another one I'm not going to give up. I love you mom. I admire you for not giving up when things got bad.

    Miss you today. Happy birthday hope you are dancing it up, up there. The pictures are your gifts and card.

    Mom, I'm here in Las Vegas visiting Gerry because he has been sick. I made these memorial stones with your initials on them. They say E.T.. I have spread them around different places I think you'd like. That way I a physical representation of you is there. Or at least was there at one time. Now you have many resting spots. I placed stones for you in a Garden in Munster, IN. I know you never lived there but it is a pretty garden with lots of butterflies nest there. I think you would like seeing those butterflies. I hope you see them all the time where you are. I also put out some stones here in Las Vegas. I placed some stones where the Nevada Palace used to be. I know that was one of the places you used to love going to. I also put stones at the drive in movies since we used to go there a lot. You also have a tree dedicated to you by the insurance company in the Davy Crockett National Forrest in Lufkin.

    Also Chris is doing really well. He has adjusted to the change and Darla is doing a good job taking care of him. Donna and Gerry have been more involved lately too which is a good thing. I send Chris packages for the holidays so he still gets things like you used to do for him. Blake got a new job and I'm hopping it will help him to recover. I think you know what I mean. I love you so much mom.

    Mom, I wrote an article about God's love and submitted it to a women's Christian magazine. They are considering publishing it. I'm super excited just thought you should know.

  • aberkey

    Happy Birthday Mom.

  • aberkey

    Mom, I have been having a hard time lately. Not everyone understands how much you meant to me and the very special person I know you to be. But I got a second job. I'm a banquet server. I work weddings and parties. I really enjoy it and it helps me to not be sad. I get to take part in peoples special moments. Being around others having fun reminds me their is joy in the world and makes me want to be happy. It also helps to know there are others dealing with things just like I am. I love you mom. I know you would have like me having this job too.

  • aberkey

    I also think Devin was going to spread your ashes at sea when he goes on a cruise. So I think there is a part of you there too. So just like when you were alive you have been everywhere.

    Butterfly for you this one was found outside my house

  • aberkey

    Mom, I had so much fun today. I saw the play how the Grinch Stole Christmas, then took pictures downtown, and ate pizza at our favorite restaurant. Then when we got home we popped holiday crackers. Those are the things they have in Canada. That Grandma and Grandpa Bonar had at their house for the holidays. They are cylinders that make a pop sound when you pull them open. Inside they have prizes, a joke, and a paper crown. It was fun to pop them and remember the fun of it. Love you, mom, just thought I'd let you know how my day went.

I hope I can find another one. I got a job as a wedding assistant. I am on break from that job for now. I broke my foot. There is just a lot. I love you mom. Help me on your end guide me to where I should go! Love you lots!

    Momma, There is so much that has happened. I left Clayton. I finally stood up for myself and left. I am doing okay. I have a job, a place to live, and an internship on the horizon. I am going to take a break from men though. It's just too much blah. I want a man that can take care of himself. Love you mom.

    Mom, Happy Birthday! To celebrate, I went to the water lantern festival. I released a lantern in your honor. It was great. There were stories, music, and at the end of the night fireworks over Navy pier.
