An idiot told me that divorce is harder than losing a spouse to death.  This person has never been widowed or divorced.  They're basing this on what they've seen from their divorced friends.  I...

It's slow going now.  I'm up to speaking in past tense and I keep getting it mixed up with present tense.  I'm getting better, though.  I had a small stop because of this whole vertigo thing, but...

I've got two surgeries scheduled over the next two months for my eye.  My father has had 4 surgeries in the last 4 months for a foot problem.  Now he needs surgery on his arm.  I've been there for...

April 1st was my rebirth day.  And now, nearly two weeks later, I'm back to living my life and feeling better.  I think it was a good idea to write my vision statement saying that I was moving...

I just took my ring off.  Feels strange.

My head is swimming.  The Spanish course I'm taking, via Rosetta Stone, is getting difficult.  Real difficult.  I'm learning how to speak in past tense, and what can I say, I'm lost, but I'll...

I'm back to practising yoga.  Boy was it hard.  It's been years and my old legs just won't go that high anymore.  I felt like an outta shape pig.  Anyhow, I'm getting there.  I did it in Spanish...

Today marks the last day my husband and I had together.  It was one year ago today that we spent our last day together.  I remember it well.  I usually work on Sunday, but on this particular day I...

Just finished part 1 of Rosetta Stone Spanish.

This has been the hardest month in this journey.  On March 15 of last year my husband went to work and never came back.  He suffered an aneurysm and died 15 days later.  A year later I'm haunted...

I'm nearing the completion of the first part of Rosetta Stone.  There are five parts, each with 4 units.  It's getting hard, but I've actually used it with native speakers and they can understand...

I've finally done it.  Well, sort of.  A few months back I posted about my fear of hanging anything on the wall.  I've never done it.  So my walls were blank.  I'd purchased all new furniture,...

I was thinking of this today for some reason, what my husband left behind that meant a lot to him.  It started with him studying for his securities test.  He so much wanted to be a Certified...

March 15 is nearly here, and with that the beginning of the end firsts.  It is the day my husband collasped with an aneurysm.  Each second of that day is etched in my mind, but most of it is also...
