Journal Entry for October 17, 2009 Mood
Saturday, October 17, 2009
Time flies.  A whole week has passed since my last entry.  My birthday turned out to be one of the best I can remember.  All 12 of the kids showed up, even Sean who is in the Navy and stationed at Norfolk drove up for dinner.  They are such a blessing to me.  I honestly don't know where I'd be without them.  My best friend brought tacos for dinner and everyone had a great time.  My son bought me a beautiful angel holding the hands of a little boy and it brought tears to my eyes.  He also bought me a new light up decoration for the Christmas tree.  The kids bought me gift certificates for a massage and one for Starbucks and, of course, a bottle of wine.  It gives me hope that one day I will have a life again.  On the other side of life, I still can't touch his clothes or even think about cleaning out his closet and I'm apprehensive about the holidays coming up.  I have to remember to take one day, one moment at a time.

    I am happy that you had a wonderful birthday and your kids showed up. About his clothes don't worry I have not moved any of his as yet and I cannot do so at this time. I know that when the time is right I will be able to do so but right now it is too soon and the pain is fresh. take care of yourself. Happy Birthday and God bless you. Lots of hugs Linda
