Swing and a Miss

Brat Boy and I watched a horrible movie, talking trash on the plot and acting. He would be the last to leave for school.

“When you leaving?” I asked.

Brat Boy said, “Thursday, but I have an online class on Wednesday.”

“OK, study hard. You’ll need to make big bucks to take care of me in my old age.”

“Storage units by the highway have eight foot ceilings and room for a cot and a propane stove. You’ll be comfortable there.”

I laughed. I was already missing him, and trying to be grateful I had people in my life I loved enough to miss. Too many people did not.

Today I’ll be grateful for having someone in my life I love enough to miss.
