Writing is a misnomer now. We Type, rather than write. Thought typing is really the correct phrase. We think a thought and our fingers put it not on paper but onto a computer for safekeeping. Writing is a condition of Reading which is where we all obtain most of the information and unfortunately not as much from a newspaper as before. Reading the news on a computer is a poor substitute for a newspaper which goes into much more depth and explanation.

My late wife's Meat Loaf recipe, enjoy!
2 lbs. of chopped meat
1 can of Contadina Tomato Sauce (small)
1-1 1/2 cups of Progresso Italian Bread Crumbs
Combine in large bowl and then form loaf
Place in foil lined aluminum pan and bake 375 degrees for about 90 minutes. (the more bread crumbs, the firmer the loaf)
Strain any excess grease as needed.
Let it cool and slice it into 1/2 pieces.

My wife passed away on Aug 23 from bladder cancer which had spread to her liver. We were married 37 years and I miss her terribly. I am going to my first bereavement meeting tomorrow and hope it helps me to cope with the loss. I have been crying especially in the car when I hear a song that reminds me of her. I have also been talking to her when I visit her grave as if she is listening. If anyone can share any tips to help deal with the loss of a spouse, I would be grateful.
