Congratulations to Cathie who completed her Wilderness First Responders (WFR) certification program via National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS). The course is an 80 hour certification course which provides the basic first reponder skills for outdoor incidents. She had already taken the Wilderness First Aide course in Tahoe earlier this summer.
I never realized how many movies have a loss via death theme. This past weekend, Jasmine went to see Charlie St Cloud. There was the Lovely Bones book and movie also. I did not see either as I am pretty sure I would have been a mess emotionally. While I am not to the point of having a conversation outloud with Alicia, I do find myself mentally having one. Lately these have been inocious conversations.
I was speaking with a lady who works for Chevron on the plane from Washington DC to Argentina. She made small talk as we both were on the same flight from SFO to Washington DC then down and we were seated kitty corner on the flight to Argentina. She was headed down for 1 weeks worth of work then was flying her daughter down to spean a week sight seeing. I pretty much switched topics right then. Alicia always would want to go with me on these trips... to see the world. We only went last Fall to NYC so she could check out colleges. I feel really sad about not spending more time with her. Not travelling with her. Now that opportunity is lost.
Jasmine has asked us to go to France or the UK. She likes the idea of travel as well. I am determined to make these situations possible and enjoy life with Cathie and Jasmine. I do not want to let these moments go bye.
