Rough couple of days...
Of course with Greg's 7 month anniversary on Sunday, I was having a couple of really bad days, we're packing moving next week, still looking for a job, parents 'dreaded 50th party coming up, where I didn't want to go and have to see some people who haven't even talked to me since his passing, but long story, short.
I've been stressing, crying, more crying but then as i was packing I found 100's of Xmas cards, i know I collect strange things, but I use them for ideas for painting, well i decided to go through them all, to keep busy and organize them to just not ave to 'think'
When half way through I felt something, 2 somethings in the box and they were 'old' bookmarks. One of a golden retriever, Greg's favorite dog and another that was talking about Angels. I looked up, smiled and said I love you and thank you GREG, I needed that. Finished a couple of hours later when the doorbell rang, a package was laying outside from UPS and I opened the box and found the most beautiful cross pendant and earrings with Greg's birthstone, blue topaz in the box. Wes had found them months ago and had ordered them for me and never even told me.
Another sign, I LOVE YOU SON! I love my husband and my really bad days and my special little gifts from Greg made me smile again.
I still miss you so much, but it's little things like this that help snap me out of my depression and also being able to share it with you all and not be judged, as I don't even tell anyone in my family any more because they do judge and think I'm crazy. LOVE you ladies... I will post pics of my treasures later. I am blessed...

finding wonderful treasures makes the day so much better.. love ya!
Those gifts are such blessings and ways to feel connected. How lovely to be receiving them and to feel that connection with your beloved Greg.
Are you moving far away? I\'m not sure that I remembered that and what a job moving is. Sorting through so many things indeed.
Take care my friend and yes, aren\'t we blessed to be able to come here to just BE. No judgment and just acceptance.
Loving care to you today and in the very busy ones ahead.

Hi, Joanie, we\'re not moving far, just 2 buildings away from where we are now. Our current building is SINKING. YUP, dropped another 3 inches in the last year, so I finally convinced my husband who works here, to tell management it was time or there would be a lawsuit. LOVE, LOVE this site and the wonderful women on here. I hope some day to meet you all.
Appreciate knowing the \"details\" as I was wondering what I had missed along the way? I cannot believe that your current building is sinking... That is just crazy! Yes, time for a move and the sooner the better, huh? Your presence is such a gift here and I hope to meet you one day as well. :) XXOO
