Carol, I'm so sorry for your loss. It's so recent. The people in this group will help you. The group focus on loss is different and specific to need, as opposed to other self-help groups. What you're probably feeling now is a struggle to gain footing in your changing world. It's a process. A feeling of starting all over like the first day in a new class. Or going to camp for the first time as a kid. Everything, however, is temporary in life. Easy to forget when we've lived in places for long lengths of time. Please keep sharing. Expressing your feelings will help you to feel better and move forward a little at a time. Take care!

I'm so sorry for the loss of your husband! This is a club none of us wanted to join but here we are members anyway. Unfortunately there is no time line for what you are feeling. Be gentle with yourself. This is definitely more like a marathon journey than a sprint. Praise yourself on the days you are moving forward.  On the days you feel you are falling back, allow yourself to grieve and respond as a human being who lost the love of her life .

 

We are here for you!

@CarolD435501 I am so sorry for your loss.

I lost my husband in 2018 and you are exactly where I was in the beginning. Some days you move forward, some you move back. In the beginning itโ€™s a lot of moving back. Your loss is so current. You must not be hard on yourself. It is a process and everyone goes thru it differently. I have more good days than bad now but every now and then something will trigger an absolute meltdown. Please look on the thread about books. Thereโ€™s a post by me about a book that may help you. And remember we are here for you. We are all in this together so keep posting how youโ€™re doing ๐Ÿ’œ

Ahhh how sweet is that? He grabbed his blanky and settled in for the night!

May we all find a source of comfort that helps us to feel safe and cozy for a good night's sleep.

(1 comment) Lol, YES - I was NOT at Walmart!! ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿฅณ

 

Glad you mentioned "curbside pickup" Marcy @MarcyW882921 . There was this "tiny" furbaby ๐Ÿ• strutting by me at my LAST Walmart trip. She/he had on "clothes" that said "curbside service"....

 

I chuckled and had hoped I would get a "minute" to doggie chat. Lol, oh NO, kept on moving.

 

The couple said thank you to my comment about the ADORABLE outfit.

 

Hmmm, I see a Walmart MASCOT....$$$$ ๐Ÿ˜‰

Yes we are faced with all of those questions aren't we? Who am I? What am I going to do with my life? Are we going to become passive observers or will we "seize the day?"

3 comments (5/25/23) I am so glad OUR @Cadee2719 stopped in as I had been feeling I too was feeling sorry for myself.

 

And "mean" humans on this site didnot help this week.

 

Lol, the side of me I try NOT to show did. Grateful AARP didnot ban me. Now that I told this individual exactly what I felt, hopefully he will stay out of my space. I hate drama.

 

Anyway guys, made it back in one piece and heading to go hopefully get some zzz's to deal with Walmart tomorrow.

Perhaps now that you expressed your feelings, it's possible to "Let It Go" as the song says. 

 

Hoping that you got some sleep and were able to safely make your WalMart run today. Maybe your area is more calm, but Fridays are very bad days around here to go anywhere!
