Sigh. One more Sunday after today. I have really enjoyed this friendly and warm little church here at my daughters. It’s given me something to look forward to. Starting Wednesday I will be saying “Last…”. I will miss my sweet little 3-1/2 yr old great granddaughter who is visiting this weekend and just had to come into my room because she wanted to give me a hug. So precious. We need these hugs. FaceTime will be our visiting tool from now now on until next year, but you can’t give REAL lovable, squeezable hugs that way. So, if she can’t come next weekend, this will be the first “Last”. I will also miss my family who have opened their doors and hearts to me. I still don’t know what lies ahead on this, the last leg of my journey to get home. My future is still before me.
Count Down

Losing a spouse is so different than losing another family member. Don’t get me wrong, they are all hard. But with a spouse there is always a constant daily reminder of them. Every meal time, television time, card playing time, morning prayer time. No more anniversaries, grocery shopping together. Meals--how do I cook for just one? I posted this and more on my Facebook page and all my friends and family members that are also widows/widowers responded with their personal perspectives of what they too have been going through. This gave me the idea of starting a blog for all who have lost a spouse to be able to share their experiences and perspectives, what is working for them, and just someone to talk to who truly understands the roller coaster ride they are on. So here we are. View more posts
