Holidays

Here it is about to be my 2nd Christmas without Lee. Trying to adapt to being a single seems like pushing a snowplow uphill. All the media hype, triggers wonderful memories at the same time reminds me of my single status, my grief looms larger than ever. It’s a balancing act happiness-sadness over and over like an echo. Carrying on, knowing what to do – stay busy, do for others, sometimes just doesn’t work. Right? Ok, so just breathe and move on, carry on..

I lost my best friend in October 2017 at 67 retirement for a year and half. We were married for 41 years together for 44. I very active walk, swim, volunteer for 2 organizations. I have 2 adult children and a a 14 dog a lab. On most days I'm ok but others my grief takes over. Being a widow is lonely and much harder than I ever imagined. I hope that my blog will help others that have been left behind. View all posts by plantgirl42
