Green Smiley Monday
Hi everyone,
Today I am claiming as another green smiley Monday. I don't feel it so much, but I am going to claim it and hope my brain chemistry follows suit. I know there has been some research that shows evidence to that effect, so what the heck. I will give it a chance, lol!
I had my grandchildren over for dinner yesterday as we usually do. We had turkey & all the trimmings, ( that in itself was good for me, cooking is therapeutic for me). We are still not up to holidays, so we had a "i'm thankful for" day. I wrote everyone a card and we shared a little about how our induividual journeys are going. My grandchildren's boyfriend/girlfriend came and 1 of Josh's friends - his friend Tim came. Tim is a very sweet & kind young man who did not leave Josh's side last year when Eddie passed. He even came to dinner every Sunday with Josh at my house & kept him focused on football & made sure he ate a little. It was so good to see him.
Thursday we will go to the cemetary. I will clean and decorate my son's stone and I will have my usual meltdown, but that's OK. I don't think that part will ever change for me. It is what it is.
After everyone left last night both Ken and I cried, but again I think I'm at the stage in this brutal and cruel journey that I know that it is all part of the process.
Lord Jesus, help me to focus on what I have and be grateful for all the years I had with Eddie.
Hi Eddie, I miss you every minute of every day, but I'm OK. I love you for ever and always, love Mom.
