Word of the Day for Thursday, May 28, 2009

avoirdupois \av-uhr-duh-POIZ; AV-uhr-duh-poiz\, noun:

1. Avoirdupois weight, a system of weights based on a pound containing 16 ounces or 7,000 grains (453.59 grams).
2. Weight; heaviness; as, a person of much avoirdupois.

Apropos of everything, I am losing the person who carried so much avoirdupois in my life.  It has not been easy, it has been a huge struggle.  My heart has sunk, I thought I would never be the same.  But now I am untangling my heart and starting to feel a shift and a lightess.

*big huge sigh*
