I'm not quite sure what to say.
I've been just chilling.
Attempted suicide...
Told you guys I wanted to die.
Only one person commented on that journal.
But 10 others commented on the next...
That made me feel good.
So...
Yep.

It’s a year on Sunday since Pam died. This year seems to have been a never-ending journey from happiness to misery; a joyless monotony of emptiness and lethargy. I just miss her so, so much.
Softly the leaves of memory fall
Gently we gather and treasure them all
Unseen, unheard you are always near
So missed, so loved, so very dear1 Recommendation13 Comments -
He would have turned 75 today - tomorrow I turn 61. I can't help but dwell on the "if only's" - and am filled with sorrow, guilt, and anger at the people who made it impossible for me to give him the best care possible - for no better reason than that they are "Christian Control Freaks"... and who, by their actions & inactions, have made my life hell - and are...2 Recommendations9 Comments

I feel like the floor has fallen out from under me. I am sad, depressed and lonely. I am tired of fighting this fight. I feel like going to bed and not getting up. I am afraid.to feel this way. I want to run away but, to what. I'd be sad where ever I went without my husband.1 Recommendation10 Comments

I'm having a side door in my garage replaced tomorrow, so had to come home tonight and clean out the garage so the poor installer could find his way to it. I had to move Russ' toolboxes out of the way, all 3 big roll-arounds that he used in his job and boy are they heavy. I've opened a few drawers here and there but really haven't gone through them to s...2 Recommendations9 Comments

Just when you think things are starting to ease up. My hours at work have been cut I am losing 1/4 of my income. I know it doesn't seem like much but when you have one in college who has just been let go from both of her jobs because of the economy and one in high school that is getting ready to graduate it is a lot. If we don't get anything new to work on at the office in the next month I will ...1 Recommendation9 Comments

As you may have guessed from the title, Robert lost his battle with ALS today. When I got him up for the day this morning, I knew something wasn't just right. His face looked funny and there was absolutely no muscle tone in his legs when I did his range of motion. His speech was terrible and neither Chris nor I could understand him. I finally did get to understand with...2 Recommendations11 Comments

So as the weekend approaches I really find myself anticipating what I am going to tell the kids. I orginally planned this weekend away so that I could tell the kids the "truth" about what happened to Mark. I do believe the truth is always the best. But now I find myself anticipating and becoming hesitant about what to tell them. I believe that they already have their s...1 Recommendation9 Comments

bad day, thinking of words said wish could be taken back. Words not said wish that they had been. It just does not seem right that the person left behind has all the memories of what should have been. Thoughts in a moment of being angry. Thoughts of the love that was not expressed. Please Please can we turn off the guilt. Tonight I am so lonely for the love I had and...1 Recommendation11 Comments
