Reading Erma

     When reading a book by Erma Bombeck, I can relate.  Her journey took her to a lot of places that I can only wish I have been to.      But rereading books can give me the jitters.  I am given these books upon suggestions of Richard's family.      I started with a selection where I started the last book on her list.  I chose a first book in that list and I found another of her books somewhere in the middle.      Right now I am in her stories and experiences with patients of Terminal Cancer.      TC is definitely worse than any of my imaginary friends combined.      I leave you with her cover.

Just like her own mother, she remembers many stories from long ago, even from the time when she started first grade. Mind you, not all of these are happy bedtime stories that make you smile before you sleep. These are tragic tales of the Japanese occupation, of unrequited love, of regrets, and of what-could-have-beens and what-ifs, pretty much balanced off with stories of climbing the neighbor’s mango tree (and harvesting some fruits without permission), of harvesting cacao at her family’s own backyard, and of endless talking over laundry by the riverside.
