- I remember losing my mother over ten years ago. There were days when I couldn't think of anything else. I would recount things that happened the last few weeks of her life. I remembered it with clarity, down to the smallest detail. Then the...
- If you own a home a simple search online can find your address, name and maybe your telephone number. From that they can also find the names of your spouse and other relatives.I do searches on my name several times a year. I'm very careful about...
- My husband passed in March of 2010. We'd been living in an apartment at the time, but my father needed me(or so i thought), so I moved in with him. That was a disaster. Suddenly, I was back home where my husband and I had also lived for a time. ...
- One of the things I do on a day like this is to think of Heaven. I picture my husband there enjoying a sunny day, having a large feast with all the relatives he lost in this life. I see God at the head of the table and everyone is smiling. I'm...
- I was just thinking about this when CrB1 asked about emergency contacts. It's just something I do since losing my husband. Years ago when my mother was very sick I started giving her an information sheet to carry in her purse. It contained her...
- It finally happened: I broke a bulb. The first time in my life. And it just had to be a CFL bulb. I'd decided early on not to buy these bulbs. I'll stock pile the regular bulbs or buy LEDs, but no bulbs that will cause me to seal a room just...
- It's been a while since I posted here. During that time most of the problems I was experiencing with my father ended--no more arguments. It's been great. I'm so happy that what I did worked. We're getting alone fine now. This doesn't mean my...
- I know this is shocking coming from an almost 55 year old woman, but I've never shoveled snow. I either lived in an apartment or my husband shoveled. Now, I'm a homeowner--or rather a townhouse owner. When I first started looking for a place I...
- I can't believe this. I ended up in the hospital a few months, one night, but it cost me over 6000 dollars. So I called the billing department to make payment arrangements, and was told that I must pay 376 dollars a month and that's it. I...
- It happened again. And this time at church. I atended a new church today. At the end of the service they sent the visitors into a separate room to meet the pastor. Long story short, the pastor mentioned the various support groups the church has,...
- Am I the only one? Since my husband passed, I haven't been able to listen to music from the 1960s. In fact, most of the time I listen to news radio. In general, most music makes me sad, even the new stuff, but especially the 1960s as he was a...
- This is response to Burnswife who wondered if she was a Mrs. I responded to her post, but here's a link to an expert on the subject. Figured I'll post it separately. ...
- I found a sad dating story online and thought I'd post the link here. We widows/widowers have got to be careful. Here's a cautionary tale.http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/online-dating-scam-military-guy-steals-500000-widow/story?id=14904669
- The other day my father said that I'm happy. I was wondering how he figured that out. I'm not happy, I'm what I call the new happy. The new happy is when you wake up in the morning without crying and you manage to make a decision without causing...
- "Oh, wow. Oh, wow. Oh, wow." Those were Steve Jobs last words. "It is very beautiful over there," spoken by Thomas Edison a few days before he passed. So, you know what I'm getting at. I think people do see the other side before they pass. ...
