I wish I had great words of wisdom. Know you will get through it one way or another . A daughter's wedding is a huge milestone at any point but you have not been widowed very long. dont put pressure on yourself. This is tough stuff. best of luck to you and your family

Wishing you some peace

Congrats!

I understand that feeling. I hope you come back. Just thought I would mention it is possible to keep a blog completely anon and private if you want to write

Ice pack on my messed up knee on meds. Not a fan of icing unless it is frosting

How about the winery again? Saturday seems easier on travelers who work

S3pending hugs.mI'm glad you shared. (((Hugs)))

I would never meet someone with out talking on the phone 1st. Meet in public. Google once you know you are interested.ni would not ask for info i was not willing to give. Good luck.

A few if us get together regularly on a cadpsual basis. We would love to meet you. We usually gather in the Hicksville area

He should not talk to you about her in more than general terms. Confidentiality does continue. The real issue is your nerves about this and your feelings. Since you have your own counselor , my wuggestion would be to talk these feelings out there,. Good luck to you

Im happy for you. I was on a pretty similar timeline. I will never regret that time I spent in grief counseling. I always knew I could "go in for a tune up" when needed. I had a great support system and so far havent needed to. No shame if I did though.

Im glad your memories are able to give you joy sometimes. It is a wonderful gift .it is that way the majority of the time for me now

Good luck

I used to see my grandpa. My SIL saw my husband and he waved. She was the last person I would expect to hear that from. I used his antiperspirant for awhile. Some clothes. It is nice.

Best of luck to you

Beyond active grieving isnt finite for me. Like the rest of this journey it ebbs and flows. I miss him but I'm getting used to it. But I'm a disaster before the anniversary each year. once my whole identity wasn't centered on widowhood I started settling into BAG

It could be what is called "mirroring". Watch yourvaccounts, idenity and passwords. Someone could be messing with you. Hopefully harmlessly

I am so very happy for you

General Discussion covers an array of topics. Someone posting OT or off topic is an indicator that a subject may not be directly related to widow support. Equal marriage is very much on topic fo some of us. Keep an eye out for OT. You may not wish to read and be aware General Discussion is very varied. Wishing you well. The widow road is a bumpy one.

Lady you can travel! You will make your own decision. Keep in mind your neice is with you abd although she us in pain mil diesnt have license to abuse you. Take care

If you have the deed and they save the $ allow it. Don't pay for it. To me it is an utter waste of money. I doubt he wouldnt want you to yave what is left to help you in this new life. As for MIL -Wanting and needing are 2 different things. No one needs a grave bench. I didn't have $ when he died but almost anyone who had a decent life insurance policy warns new widows they spent and gave away too much money that 1st year. It is self care not selfish

If it is straightforward likely not. Just google diy will for your state to be sure
