Trying to get off the meds, all but the anti-depressant and I will need that awhile. Getting off Ambien is terrible but the side effects were much worse. So what if I don't sleep? I can always do laundry! Evenings are long and lonely, better if I get a call. Eddie and I are both bored, and it can only get worse with Winter at our heels. We miss Don so much, and it's so painful to talk about him. Even my great-niece can't talk about him, she loved him very much.
Overwhelmed with the house, with repairs, cleaning, getting rid of things. I guess time will help me out, for right now I sit and try to watch tv or go online, at least I feel connected to the outside world.
This really sucks.
I will honor my husband's memory in my own way and in my own time. I will not sit around and cry, or recall all the good times, not yet. They creep in sometimes and I have to get up and do something to keep busy or call a friend.
Everyone handles grief and loss in their own way. I want to go on living. Crawling into a tear-filled hole isn't living.
Don, if you're listening, if you are in a good place, I love you with all my heart, but my life isn't over and I know you wouldn't want it to be. Be at peace, my only love.

Oh, so beautifully said, Doc. Only you could so succinctly and coherently state what is impossible to be said. No, your mom could have done it too. I know you inherited that wonderful gift from Bernie T. : I hear it in your 'voice' when you pen something. I love you, girlfriend. Always and forever~
