Oh! Eeyore7! That's what I did......I shopped for both of us instead of just me. I've thrown away more stuff that I will NEVER eat or too much that got spoiled. We're so used to having that man around to gobble-up the food.

I still wear my rings. I'm naked without them. I'm not ready to go out into the world naked yet!

I totally understand that tired feeling. I'm getting enough sleep but I feel like I'm dragging myself around! It's all part of the grieving thing.

Go out breathe in the air look down at your hands and see that you are still here, you're here to carry on! We're doing this together, you're not alone and our feelings about life, right now, are similar. This did NOT happen to someone else, it's happened to us.

Be well,
Roz

Eeyore . . I can totally relate, even at ten months "today". Not to say that I'm in the same space as I was at five months, I do have better days than others; however, the feeling of being "tired" remains. I'm simply tired all of the time. I sleep whenever I can and my fam/friends think I've gone off the deep end and are worried I'm depressed because I'll sleep during the day only to be up all night. I've simply given myself cart blanch to rest and relax when I can, cry when I want, rant with anger, etc. It's all a part of the process. Try not to repress or expect too much of yourself right now. Acceptance is key. This is where you are today, but you will grow through it and there will be better tomorrows ahead.

Sending healing thoughts your way. xo, Dayna

Eeyore7 ,
I am almost at 2 years and I remember those feelings like it was yesterday......No concentration, sleepy, restless, foggy, wishing the time would pass faster so I could get through grieving faster.
Life lesson learned: you cannot rush or barrel through it.....take your time...cry when you want, sleep when you can and always try to eat something nutritious and hydrate yourself. Ask for help from your friends and family...they don't know what to do for you, so tell them.....they are there for you. Try to find a grievance group as it helped me tremendously. Take baby steps....you can and will get through this. Warm hugs to you and your children,
Pam

Oh! No! Mia, your kitty and Deweys kitty look a lot alike.....except his has some really bad habits. Scary little bugger! His name is Harley and he loves to go a-hunting!

Aren't our creatures the best for keeping us in line and making our lives so much fuller?

I'll be at 2 years in a couple of months, I can't believe he's gone!
