Long Days

I worked through the weekend and worked late tonight. I may enjoy coding, but sometimes it can be a long haul. It helps, though, that everyone I work with is good people. Very good people.

My great grandmother passed away last night. She was a brilliant light and everyone that knew her was truly blessed with her presence. She will be sorely missed. I am deeply saddened by the fact that my fiancée never met the woman whose ring she will wear. I suppose that’s just the way things will be. I do know that my great grandmother appreciated and felt good about giving the ring to Tanesha and me. And too, my fiancée is—dare I say—overcome with humility and honor at the prospect of wearing this ring. I can think of no better way to show my appreciation and love for my great grandmother than to give this ring to Tanesha. And to live out our marriage, and have a heck of a lot of fun doing it.
