- I am back after a long absence. I would love to say I am now happily married, but that is not the case. I am in love though - I think! Anyway smitten. I had a Covid-19 meetup the end of March with my Aussie friend, but then he had to go back...

- I will try to make this brief. I haven't been on here in months. I finally got moved. It was a very long, tedious process because it seemed I went at it backwards. I didn't take into account that I would have to do all my own sorting and...
- My family has good intentions. I agreed to move back close to them, and well, it's just a slower process than I thought it would be. They think it's a money issue, but it's more of a time issue. My emotions are the big culprit here. I cannot...
- I worked on the garage for a couple more hours today. I'm thinking it's about time to get the estate people involved. I am not paying them and then have to do half the work. I am not even sure I can make my deadline of June 1. I'm...
- I packed a few more boxes and stacked them in the closet. I washed my dishes and ran the dishwasher; I also did a load of towels, which are in the dryer now. It rained, so I couldn't pull anything out of the garage. I drove myself to...
- Some very nice neighbors dropped off a trunkload of copy paper boxes this morning. I think that will be enough for moving project #1. Next, I think I will just pack up the office except for my computer, printer, and basic supplies to last till...
- My house has not been deep cleaned in 6 months due to a personal injury which involved two surgeries and lots of therapy. I am also in the throes of trying to move 3000 miles away; I've already paid my deposit to the moving company, and the truck...
- My emotions are up and down and all over the place. I am trying to grieve, trying to move, trying to heal, trying to find my new self. I have the moving truck scheduled for the end of May, but I can't seem to pack. I have no help whatsoever. ...
- I haven't posted in a while. Things should be rolling right along by now, right? You know, making all those adjustments and such...It isn't that way. I feel terrible; I feel sad; I feel almost hopeless...I think I know now why I drug my feet...
- I found these videos by Abel Keogh on YouTube. They are very informative. He doesn't use the religious applications that Susie Borrows LaRue does, but he does share a man's perspective on many issues of dating/marrying a widower. He also has...
- Well, I finally got tired of being treated like a cast-off by the funeral home and monument company, collectively. I did not use this local funeral home, but they own the cemetery. Which I did not know. I finally went to my bank yesterday and...
- I ran across a series on YouTube called Widow's Wednesday. It is Sue Borrows LaRue's channel, and there are close to 40 of these. I listened to one or two and then decided to start with Episode 1, where she talks about the day she became a...
- You would think that after two years, I could get some closure on this. These goofballs have played footsie with me for over a year. I have saved back the money all this time, having taken "shortcuts" everywhere else. I did a direct burial; I...
- Well, I think I accomplished something. My son was supposed to cook Christmas dinner today, but I ended up doing it.I cooked a choice rib roast (for the first time), sweet potato casserole, Italian green beans with bacon (he did fry the bacon...
