📎 Be patient: Understand that grief isn't linear and can resurface, especially around anniversaries or holidays; it's a process that can take months or years.

📎 Marcy @MarcyW882921 , glad you stopped by!!! 💃

Went for xrays today. Go back on 20th to get a Walking Boot.

I am on my 3rd cast. First two I let the "youngsters" pick colors.

1st was green with sprinkles

2nd red with sprinkles.

Lol, everyone luved them at Kroger when I was riding around in their SCOOTER. Said they were festive. Told them the youngsters picked them.

Today, I picked paws = for my boy.

Learning to drive the SCOOTER was interesting & funny. Grateful folks understood I had NO idea what I was doing.

NOW I am a pro. 😉

Luv,

Nicole 💛🤗

📎 Dear Marcy @MarcyW882921 , I just received Post Office "email" notification that there is a CHRISTMAS CARD coming to my mailbox from you!!!

Unfortunately it will be AFTER Christmas before I can get it.

Girlfriend, I fell for the 1st time in my 67 years on Black Ice 12/6/25 & suppose to be on bed rest (cast, ankle fractured in 2 places).

My neighbors here in Virginia have been AWESOME & John Mark checks my mail & takes my trash out on Saturdays.

Cast should be off January 2nd. 💃

Anyway, fellow Florida Girl (lol, NOT old lady), I do still plan on moving back to Florida. So see you soon!!!

Luv,

Nicole 🤗🤗🤗 (Grief Forum)

Oh, Nicole! You are so kind and thoughtful to everyone you encounter, and now you need help. Sounds like the folks in Virginia are helping. Swift healing for you and your dear bones!

Thanks Nicole @SummerOnTheWay1 ! I think of you, and try to keep up with your postings. I'm doing all of my usual activities, and I add in a class, webinar, or meeting with friends too.

📎 BE GOOD to yourself!!!

Sometimes losing a loved one means LESS to pay the bills. ☹

But finding ways to FILL UP will keep us BALANCED (emotionally, spiritually, mentally).

Suggestion: So many FREE WAYS to do this. Just find WHAT fills YOU up. Me, bingeing on Agatha Christie Audiobooks (free on YouTube). Also helps me to catch a few zzz's on those nights I CANNOT SLEEP. My sleepaid. ‌👍‌

Question: What self care are you doing? 🤔

Luv,

Nicole 🤗🤗🤗 (Grief Forum)

Singing, taking classes, exercising, socializing, engaging with my spirituality, and making healthy food choices.

And all kinds of other things too if we are mindful and look for them. I have been bombarded recently with angel numbers and find them very comforting.

Grief is a long difficult journey and finding any kind of bright spots along the way certainly helps. 🌞🌷⭐️🌕

📎 Dear sweet and strong Cadee @Cadee2719 thank you SO MUCH for your PM.

I am letting EVERYONE know while you are MIA at the moment, you did let me know you are still alive.

Hang in there my friend and know that we ALL admire your strength in spite of losing your hubbie, brother and son within a few months of each other.

I am looking forward to your NEXT visit when you feel up to it.

Luv and ADMIRE you my friend.

Weekends can be tough. What do you have planned that may be a positive distraction? For me it's making a spiritual connection, volunteering, and participating in a bowling fundraiser. Whatever your plans, I hope they provide some grief relief and maybe even bring some joy to your heart.

📎 SO GOOD to hear from you dear Marcy @MarcyW882921 !!! 💃💃💃

Well Mr. 🐈 has provided a much needed relief from my GRIEVING and SO GRATEFUL.

Glad to hear you have a POSITIVE WEEKEND planned Bionic Marcy aka Ms. Chorus aka Ms. Zumba aka Ms. Tennis and Ms. Volunteer.

I am hoping Ms. Idaho aka Ms. Gourmet cook aka Cadee @Cadee2719 stops by to say hello. Lol, one BUSY lady these days and SO HAPPY her son moved when she did. NEW BEGINNINGS FOR THEM BOTH. As she said, she still has her MOMENTS like we all do. Losing her hubbie, son and brother within MONTHS OF EACH OTHER but ALWAYS gives us all luv and encouragement.

Luv you SO MUCH,

Nicole 🤗🤗🤗
