I'm probably the only person who can cut themselves shaving with an electric shaver.

One good thing about her was that she laughed at my weird off-the-wall jokes. Sometimes it took a minute for her to figure them out. I always tried to stay a step or two ahead of her, but it wasn't always easy. Often she would beat me to the punchline.

I remember one joke I made about a rose bush she'd planted. She complained that it was sending vines 15 feet up the wall of our home. Much too high, she thought. I made the suggestion that she should've bought an Australian rose bush. She didn't get the joke until I explained the vines on an Australian rose bush would grow the other way - 'down under'. She got in my face and asked 'Why do I even bother to listening to you?'

It was that bush she was admiring on a lovely day last December when she turned and broke her cancer weakened leg. This Sunday, the 4th, will be the 12 month anniversary of that horrible day. Exactly 3 weeks before Christmas. I don't know I'll ever be lucky enough to find someone who'll appreciate my humor as much as she did.

I've been invited to a wedding tomorrow. I was asked to be the photographer. I'm extremely honored that someone would think so highly of my photographic skills, enough to want me to record their special day. I sure hope I can focus on the task at hand and not let them down. People photos - especially weddings are not my specialty. It's to be outdoors and the weather should be nice.
