Hello everyone...I have been coming and going here lately.
It is nice to see people I know and a couple new ones as well.
Not too much happening for me these days. I have become good friends with quite a few of the people that live in my complex. We get together and have lots of fun times. Never a dull moment!
My health is an ongoing problem. I try not to dwell on it. I recently qualified for a "Jazzy" an Electric Wheelchair. That will make it so much easier for me to get around. Walking has been a big issue. I am so grateful for that chair! It will be here this coming week.
Other news is that on Mother's Day my family was all here. My granddaughter and her husband announced that I am going to be a great grandy..that is what they call me. I can't wait for November to get here.
So what has everyone been up to lately?? Any exciting news to report from anyone?
Have a great day....connie d

Treat yourself well. Try to do all you can work wise on Monday, so Tuesday can be a lighter day. Holidays and birthdays are difficult. It will get less painful with time and the memories and remembrances will become dear friends. Get grief counseling if necessary. I was lucky enough to have a woman in my chorale that had gone through the same thing the year before I lost my mom and she was a great listener. You may be able to find a support group in your community. Do what you need to do.
Thank you Linda for responding to me. I know what you mean! I wanted to call mom so bad the other night to tell her something that Rick did that was so funny and I couldn't! I cried and cried. I just don't have anyone to talk to anymore to share things with.
Tuesday the 6th will be her birthday and I know it will be hard for me once more.
I feel your pain. I really do.

So sorry to hear about your mom. Losing a parent is so very hard. No matter how old you are you feel like an orphan. I went to the phone the other day to call my mom and had my hand on the receiver before It hit me that she was no longer here to answer my questions or share special and funny things my grand kids are doing. She has been gone 4 years now and at times I still forget. It will take time for you to settle into your new normal. Honor her memory in whatever fashion is true to you and the relationship you shared with her. Trust that God has a plan even if we can not see or understand it.
Thank you so much for the condolences. Means so much to me. It was so hard being right there with her to the end. But glad I was!

You are so welcome! Also remember to Sip Sip Sip and Walk Walk Walk after your surgery. And don't worry that you can't get all your water in right away. None of us could!
