Life Turns On A Dime

It's been a rough couple of weeks. Eric has not been doing well health-wise and we spent Friday in the emergency room. Before that, Kari suffered an injury and was out for Vegas. Eric was feeling better by yesterday morning and said he still wanted to see Aerosmith. Fine. Unbeknownst to me that while I writing my hopeful Aerosmith post for yesterday, my girlfriend Christa was dead. She was also going to meet us in Vegas for the residency.

Christa was a wonderful woman who injected energy into every room she entered. She dedicated her life to improving her community. To say her death is a shock is an understatement. My brain feels like scrambled eggs and I have had about 24 hours to process the news. I found out on Facebook, because 2019 I guess. She was young and this isn't supposed to happen.

I can't go see Aerosmith without her this week. We were friends for about two decades, dating way before this website was even an idea. She had a huge passion for music and could hear literally any song one time and immediately remember the words and melody. She could probably pick up her french horn and play it for you too!

Don't take anything for granted.
