- Last night I sat by my clock and read a book. I needed no light other than the blue light from the clock, the green light from the cable box, the red light from the Roku box, and the red light from the power cord. What I'm getting at is that there...
- My eye doctor just told me I have catarats, so I'll need surgery in my right eye. It's terrible because my husband is no longer here to drive me afterwards, so I was wondering if anyone had cataract surgery in the past 5 years. What was your...
- Ever want to get a new personality? Well, the one I want is the one my father has. He could care less about other people, including me. Now, it may seem strange to want to be that way, and I don't really. But what I'd like to have is the abilty...
- --Ronald Reagan was born 100 years ago.- The Partridge Family premiered 41 years ago.- It's been nearly ten years since 9/11 - It's almost time for another presidential election- The other day I saw a clip of a film starring Kate Winslet, who's...
- A few weeks ago I told people here about my taking my ring off on the one year anniversary of my husbands passing. On April 1, I will remove my ring and premier the new woman: me. I call it my rebirth. Here's how my rebirth week has been shaping...
- Many of you may know that I'm planning to take my ring off April, 1. I call it my rebirth day. Well, last night I had an interesting dream, staring my husband. In it, I was registering for classes, planning a new career. My husband was very...
- In about two weeks it will be the anniversary of my husband's actual death. He lost consciousness on March 15, but didn't die for another two weeks. Anyhow, I'm planning to take my ring off on April 1, 2011. I've observed the old-fashioned idea...
- I just finished reading a book called "Lydia's Charm." It's a book set in the Amish community and involves several widows/widowers. I not only learned about the Amish community, but also how they deal with grief. I envy them. They have so much...
- Today is the anniversary of when my husband collasped with the aneurysm. He never woke up, but lingered for a few weeks.I have a method I use to make a bad day a good day. I did this when I had a miscarrage years ago. In the years following the...
- When I was a young woman 'single' meant an unmarried woman or man. Divorced meant a person who'd been married and then terminated the marriage. Then there was 'spinster' a woman of a certain age who'd never been married. And of course...
- I've come to think that few people have encountered widows/widowers. I've come to this conclusion because no one seems to know quite what to make of us. Here's what I noticed:1. People say we'll find someone new. To me this seems appropriate for...
- My husband died without a Will, leaving 1100.00 dollars in a checking account. My name wasn't on it, so I knew I couldn't just walk into the bank and ask for the money without his death certificate, but boy did I get the runaround.It started last...
- It's been nearly a year and I've had plenty of time to examine every part of this journey. I was thinking about something today. So many of us are alone and hating it, but for me it wasn't enough to just hate it, I needed to know why. Of course...
- I lost my husband in March to an aneurysm. I won't be able to say that in another few days. Why? Because it will be March of 2011. Therefore, I will have to say, I lost my husband last March. Or I lost my husband in March of 2010. I don't...
- I was watching a program called Hoarders last night. On it a man, who'd lost his wife more than 20 years ago, had started keeping pet rats. He said he needed to feel life around him, so the rats made him feel loved. The man started with three...
