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!
I got that Shingles Vaccine last year. My niece got it, too. We both did good with it. We got it at CVS. My Dad had Shingles and really suffered with it so I decided to get the vaccine.
Now, though, after they bugged me to get it the Doctor's office is like they don't want to know about it.
But I'm glad I got it because it's one less thing they can ask me about.
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!!
My cousin, son and his wife and myself have been cleaning out my mother's house. My mother saved newspapers from The Washington DC papers. We lived by Washington DC when President Kennedy was shot. It was heart breaking reading the article of JFKs death and Jon Jon saluting the casket. I saw JFK when I was eight years old and I liked him. I am saving these articles and scrapbooking them.
I also bought home dolls and jewelry I had as a kid.
My husband bought hom a brown wooden table that I put my father's flag, medals and replica of the C130 he flew.
Mom and Dad's grave stone arrived earlier this week and it is beautiful.
It has been nice having my son and his wife here. It has been rough with Mom dying.
