Description I just opened one of my fathers bottle of wine...
Im alone in his house, all day floating in this place...
Everything remainds me im not from here, but i am.

My old life is just a wish now, left my old house to joaquín for now, my work, my passion nights, my mornings in the kitchen, so mines. Everything what i ever choose and fight is in other places...

I love this house for what it was to my dad. So loved, the pets needs all of me, also plants and flowers... everything gives me a welcome hug, i never lived in here and is all mine... so extrange, but i want to go back.

This photograph was taken by him at 80s. A selfportrait. What a strong look.... those eyes had suffering... a life full of bad memories. But i know he was happy sometimes... life is so hard, but worth every tear.

Gracias, no sé todavía, yo estoy en lo de mi viejo y Juako está allá, haciendo los Jacks solo...
Por eso estoy tan conectada con esto.... necesito mi tiempo para digerir y después veremos...
Igual, lo que pase va a ser bueno. Mejor.
Un día vení a visitarme.

Wonderful portairt.
And so nice that you have these photos of him.

Yes i think so... he loved me so much, said all the time. Also i did annoy him more than i wanted...but that how it works.... with dads and daughters.
My brother was more like a friend, partners in music and pc, my bro signs so well. They were so close too. now i got my brother more than anytime before.

He suffered an infarct on the street buying all the new year stuff to us....
He came home walking (had two heart episodes before but nothing too dangeruos, doctors said he was all right) with that big shopping cart... because he didnt find a taxi.
The day was so hot, the worse, cause here is summer. He couldnt support the weight of the cart...and died two streets before home. Police called me and i was the first to get there, finding him thrown in the floor... his face wasnt showing suffering.... i think it was so quick he didnt understood what happens.
In the cart there was flowers for the garden, meat of every color, ten bottles of coce, we couldnt even move it... so heavy for him. He wanted to have the best party for us (his girlfriend with their sons and daughters, my brother, my aunt, Joaquín and me).

Thanks for asking, that was too painfull for me. So shocking and fast. My last words on the phone were " i love you dad"..."me too...bye". I swear.

Im keeping this in my mind:
he was doing something that made him so happy,
he had no long suffering farewells,
no hospitals,
no sickness pains,
no sadness eyes speaking of death in front of him....
That makes me stronger.
