Hello it’s me!

I know it’s been a while, quite a while. Over four years since Steve has passed away and guess what? I’m still here, surviving. Never ever would I have thought I would emotionally be here where I am today. So much has happened, especially this year… a divorce of our son… the marriage of our…

Spring growth

I knew all along as I was trying to grasp my life and journey, that those have helped me and Steve the most, including getting through Covid,,and I hate to use that as a baseline but what we were told at the time , scared the be-Jesus out of some of us. I knew in…

Mitch Albom

Two words… that’s all I can say. He has been my most favorite author since Steve has passed away. Sure, he is most known for Tuesdays with Morrie and lest I say … a few more. And I’m not really sure what turned me on or enticed me to read on… but I felt a…

The problem is

When you are grieving, and in your own way, you will always be missing that special loved one. There’s no time clock to tell you when to stop . The memories will always be there, just like snippets of your life as a child growing up. Hopefully, all those memories are fond ones , they…

I Wish I could remember

I talk to very few people anymore because I don’t have Steve as that one constant person I would talk to. You know… those mundane conversations that we think we are having, but in the end they could be so important. Here’s why…. I think maybe in my past blogs, I might have said that…

To be or not to be..

Famous words often used for various reasons. They weren’t the original thoughts of this post but it’s true. I’m sorry if I’m repeating myself but at the end of 2024 , during the holidays, I finally found that I had become my own person again. I was still and always will be a grieving widow…

Recap of 2024

I think sometimes, that I feel like I am finally becoming a whole person again. It’s been three and a half years now that Steve has passed away. And some might be thinking what took me so long. Others in my shoes already have been dating . They are around my same age, they were…

Another holiday… another day

It’s been 3 years and 8 months since Steve has passed away. I don’t feel like I’m making any headway in my life other than I try to keep busy… busy all the time. My cousin said, that she knows I am always busy but I’m not sure that she realizes why. She battles depression.…

More holidays…

I’m still trying to embrace and enjoy every holiday through out the year. But let’s face it, these autumn and winter holidays are more precious than the spring and summer holidays are. Maybe, it’s our human defense mechanism kicks in during the winter months, hibernation, the cold, and then we have the BIG celebrations of…

Stop the carousel

Please stop this carousel, you know, the beautiful one with the festively painted horses that go around and around with the music. The one where you can pull on the golden ring and then toss it into the box. About two weeks ago, I thought I was on this ride that just wouldn’t stop. It…
