It reminded me that we all end up alone, even former first ladies.
This in turn reminded me that I recently dreamt I was a former first lady myself. I was on a tour of the White House with all of the other former first ladies, a surprising number of whom were still alive. I was in a panic because could not remember which former first lady I was supposed to be, which former president I was currently married to or had once been married to. I was fairly sure that I was Mamie Eisenhower, but then the tour guide addressed one of the other women as Mamie, so I was at a loss. I woke up thinking, "But of course, I would have to be Lady Bird Johnson," as tho it were obvious.

When I was at home I looked thru an awful lot of old journals. Most of them were pretty depressing. I liked this sad little entry, from March of 1997:

I am trying to remember that life is not poopy if you don't want it to be.
All the same, it is a little bit poopy.
