Mall after Christmas

Amazing...sitting in the mall...after Christmas.
Are they getting something for free?
They hustle just as mad as before Christmas...
I watch a young couple counting money on the table next to me...food court...while the young man takes a picture of his brand-new sneakers from addidas.
post that on instagram...while I listen to the drummer boy.
Three tables down...selfies...while the cleaning crew desperately try's to keep up with the never ending disaster of dirty tables..
So I look up...really...woman do you have to wear sleeper pants in the mall? Am I the only person that is annoyed by it...must have made a face...she looked at me 
As I look down the isle of restaurants...I ask myself how many calories...each restaurant serves their customers today...
Not that it matters to anyone...
Young men sit down 2 tables over...they are soldiers...the look so young...or am I getting old? Their haircuts gave them away......want to observe more...will be back...but they don't talk to each other they just sit on their phones and play games ...weird world I am living in

 Dear gentle reader,  this would be how Penelope would start her writing. Am I better? Grief does not get easier, you just learn to hide it better. I miss my son more and more. I miss his smile, his golden heart, I miss him messing with me, I miss his hugs, I miss how fiercely he love his family. Then I look at his nephews and have to admit, my boy is coming through!  This is not the reason why I am writing again though. For 2.5 years I basically did not touch my sewing machine. Right now it is standing in front of me and yes I used it to make a Christmas book for my grandboys! Picture will follow. I am just glad I started again, it is still not an easy task! I am glad I made it, I am still trying to figure out if I am still in love with it. Be patient be kind.
