GOOD MORNING EVERYONE  😀  Today is going to be another busy day.  My son is moving in today!  I am so glad.  I must admit though that even with two storage bins, he is bringing a lot of stuff here??  We eventually will determine when and where we plan to move to and make that move together; him in his house and me in mine but near each other.  Attending the "Reveal Party" yesterday at my neighbors was good for me.  It was nice to be with people, but sad also.  Seeing loving families together reminded me of my loss.  However, it was a nice day and I survived.  Hope it is cooling off where you live.  It remains very, very hot here making it impossible to be outside.  STAY COOL EVERYONE  ⛄

I had to go to the doctor on Friday to have hands checked as I have numbness/tingling and hand pain in both hands..A nerve test was ordered asap and waiting for the appt. call ..Also on  my last visit in July a Nuclear stress test was suppose to be ordered and it turns out it wasn't ..a real "go around" so here I am again at base one...Everything these days seem to be backwards in all areas..Everyone is short handed so there are endless delays..My overall attitude is positive and I take each day as it comes..

If we don't have enough stress and challenges in our life, we have dealings with the medical community. I'm sorry to hear about your hands, but glad that test was at least ordered. I hope you get an appointment soon that will give you some answers going forward. Keep that positive attitude while being your best health advocate.

I got so angry Friday. I had to go through some paperwork of my husband's. I ended up taking a rubber mallet and smashing an end table with it. Don't worry, it was one that I was getting rid of, LOL. I know that anger is one of the stages of grief so I know that I am starting to really understand that he is truly gone and not coming back. My grieving process has begun. My Mom asked me if it made me feel better but it didn't. I know that the angriest part is still to come but at least I can take it out on things that I don't want anymore, LOL.

So good to hear from you Carol @CarolD435501 . Trying to figure out where you are and how to make it better is definitely part of this journey! Do it for yourself because you are still living and also for your Love because he is such a big part of your life. Keep remembering and put one foot in front of the other.

Isn't retirement wonderful.  I left my job in 2003 after my husband had his stroke.  At first I struggled with all the time I had on my hands, but as the years passed I became so busy and settled into no longer working.

  I have been busy catching up with my vaccines.  During the time my husband was in Hospice (8 Months) I did get my COVID and FLU vaccines but let all the others slide bye.  I felt if I got a shot and it made me ill, I could not take care of my husband so I didn't get them.  Medicare reminded me of the vaccines I needed so I went to get my PREVNAR 20 pneumonia shot.  One down, and three other vaccines to go.  Most caregivers fail to take care of themselves and that is something we MUST do.

 

Today I am attending my neighbor's REVEAL PARTY.  Excited that her daughter is expecting.  Have a GREAT SUNDAY and BE KIND TO YOURSELF.

Nicole, how are you doing? I love your gifs. They're so adorable. Thank you for posting them and cheering us all up! You have a gift for helping the grieving Nicole. You're very valuable to the site and the people here. It is a consistency when people's lives have been turned upside down. I had a longtime friend who always talked about her future. She said we always have a future. No matter where we are on our journey. I think the heat index is getting us all down a bit. Grateful for A/C. Just putting one foot in front of the other these days. Backsliding is fine. Lol. Know that you are important to all of us Nicole. All on the site are important. Hope everyone finds peace and rest in their day and hope and happiness in the future!

I am here and really appreciate the love and prayers. I was in the basement yesterday, and found some of my husband's paperwork that I had to go through and get rid of. I got so angry that I picked up a rubber mallet and started destroying a nightstand that I want to get rid of anyway. I thought the anger would help make me feel better but it hasn't yet because, I know the grief really hasn't set in yet and I know that anger is part of the grief process but I am just trying one day at a time. Love you my friend and I appreciate that you say that every time you leave a message. It inspires me to know that already people love me and are supporting me.
