Sunday
Today I went to church. I would have been fine except when a lady told me that I need to get out more. Get a part time job or join a group. It will be 6 weeks tomorrow. Making myself get groceries or going to church is big for me. She was trying to be nice but it really brought me down. I live in a very rural place and you have to travel some distance for everything. I could have told her that since the place I worked for 17 years closed that I have been looking for work. It is not easy. Now my emotions are are all over the place. Just when I think I am getting better control it happens again. I am going to a support group tomorrow. Please let it help.

Hi, people say the craziest things to us in the name of helping. Continue to what is good for you. I try to remember that they have no clue how it feels to lose a spouse.
I went to church today too and they just had a married couples retreat. So there was a lot of talk about husbands and wives, it was a little sad for me.
I will keep you in my prayers. Marilyn
