Well, it will be a month tomorrow since husband passed away. I am still taking it one day at a time. I did go out to a benefit trivia night for a cancer patient last Sat. and had fun and won a $550 gym and weight manangment memebership to the gym I've wanted to go to for over a year now (another sign from husband I do believe). It's for 3 months and I won it in the silent auction for $40. I had my hair cut, nails and toes done and bought all new makeup. It felt good, but in a way, it made me miss him even more because we never had the money for me to really splurge on myself like that.
I start my grief support group on the 31st and can't wait. The evenings are the worst for me because we would spend the first part of them, while he was cooking dinner, talking about how our days went. Now I have Alex, who can't possibly fill in for this one, and the dog, who misses husband even more than I do, I think.
Anyway, just please say a prayer for me to get through tomorrow okay. The last 3 have been really, really hard. And, St. Pat's day was awful...it was the first time in 9 years I didn't walk into my home and smell the heavenly scent of corned beef and cabbage and have a shot of Irish whiskey and a beer waiting for me. He LOVED St. Patrick's day so much...but I made it through with Alex and Hardee's
