This is a book is about women, Taylor Swift, challenges, everything I can think of. I wrote from the heart. I love my Heart Trophy I got for this! Enjoy!
Surely, the loss of someone we're close to will make us grieve for years and that is extra extra draining. But then, more or less, we learn to live with it.
Also, you hit the nail on the head with the repairs. My plumber left moments ago. Thank God that he could come within a day or I'd fry with some weird drainage problem in the AC. It's always something, here. Then, arthritis is another thing but I promised myself not to dwell on it. Lol!
The firsts without our parents are tough. Some days are harder to move through than others. As you say, they live in your heart. We carry them with us. And each day we slowly adjust to a world without them. I genuinely don't think there is any getting over - or I am really bad at it. I think the hole they leave stays the same, our capacity to love those left just increases and we just fill the space with memories.
Grief is very draining. It saps everything you have to offer. I am sorry for your loss. I still feel the hole my dad left behind and that was almost 10 years ago. You are right, the memories keep us going, that and good friends to lean on!!
I'm sorry for your loss. Mother's Day has been tough for me since losing my mom as well. I try to focus the day on honoring my wife with our kids, but it's hard knowing that someone I was so close to isn't here anymore.
I am with you. I never have understood the whole "Blog" thing and what it means. I think Journal or Diary is a better word for what goes on with me.
It is one of those things that creeps up on us. I have no idea what Vlog is either.
Journal makes sense to me. But I can call it what they want me to call it to get along and be nice. I am sure there is something I am missing in my understanding.
Prompt: What reminds you of Christmas and December?
Cold weather. Snow. Peppermint. Christmas music and movies. Hot cocoa. Reindeer. Santa and elves. A sleigh. Chocolate fudge and gingerbread men. Donkeys. Life savers. Pine trees. Oranges. Smell of wood burning. Wrapping paper. Angels. The colors red and green. Sugar cookies. These things remind me of December and Christmas.
