Aaron and I were going to patch this hole in the basement drywall together. We made it together with his strength and my elbow.
Drugs and alcohol are a dangerous concoction. Explosive actually. Not the first area of wall to take a beating, it was the last. November 2003. The repair of the behaviors which created the hole started in December '03 and continue today. Aaron's work ended before we could patch holes. Our holes were patched before he died.
In June I bought the material to make the repair. I had put this off as long as I could. What is a donut without a hole? As long as I could see the hole Aaron's energy existed for me to touch. My elbow still fit perfectly. The small depressions a little higher up were knuckles from his hand. Reminders that we had been there. Reminders of the damage done. Heaps and heaps of what we sow.
Courtesy of High Tech Sales I found this: "Our Drywall repair kits are the easiest way you will find for repairing holes in your wall."
There are no easy ways of repairing what we sow.
