| Remembering today... how much Dianne appreciated those little boxes of coconut clusters! |
However, I have discovered during the past year or two how easy it is to order things on line... and have them delivered directly to our home. Somebody does the shopping for me... and delivers it directly to my doorstep!
Dianne thought I was a little bit extreme when I started ordering our favorite coffee from Walmart. The specific type we liked wasn't available in our local supermarkets... I could buy the coffee at a great price... and if I ordered enough... delivery was free!
I tried it ... and it worked perfectly... so that's how we started buying our coffee online from Walmart.
On the second or third order, I noticed that Walmart also had available the little Russell Stover coconut clusters that Dianne liked so much... so I ordered a box of the candy along with the coffee. Of course... I didn't mention the candy part of the order to Dianne.
When our order arrived, and Dianne opened the package, you would have thought that I had given her the most expensive and exotic gift in the world! She was so happy to get that little box of coconut clusters.
So, all future orders, included both coffee and coconut clusters!
This box (in the photo above) was still sitting on the shelf in one of our bookcases... and when I saw it today... I had to cry.
I have recently read several places that we have to go through the door of grief... we cannot go around it.
Today's door was this box of Dianne's favorite candy.
