Collette,

Thank you. I have one hundred things to do but I can't focus worth a damn. I am running around here like a chicken with my head cut off. I am trying to pull it together and get organized for her services on Sunday. I just want things to be perfect or as close to perfect as possible.

Your words above are much better than any cliche. (I had to look up treacly)

Thank you again!

Are you managing to eat properly and call on family, friends if you need some help?

Wrang1er · 07-06-2020, 09:06 PM

For the first time in my life I don't have an appetite. Which, I am sure will fix itself in time.

My nephew has been staying with me since Wednesday. He was so sad he called me crying and that made me cry. Now, I'm suffering from family overload. I think they are all worried that I'll get lonely.

Thank you for asking, Collette.

I'm watching TV in bed. Last week I moved the big desktop computer to the bedroom because there's an air conditioner in here. I'm not used to having a TV in the bedroom and it makes it feel like a hotel, which I LOVE.

I've got Dr. Foster on, in the background. I will watch anything with Suranne Jones in it. I'm also checking Facebook periodically for the kind comments I'm getting on some good news. I feel grateful, at peace, getting sleepy.

Wrangler you and your ((( mom ))) were each others best friend. Your going to cry ~ and it's ok let it all out ~ someday you will cry less ~ times help heal the wounds but your never over it ~ you will find yourself referring to specific times like " that was 3 months b4 my mom passed " always referring to mom ~ it's a hard to lose your mom. or dad ~ that's why I always feel people go threw relationship breakups like their mourning a death ~ same loss ~ empty and full of emotions. you will be ok. watch CNN its a hoot with dump the trump always tweeting. lolol oyyy

Filing. Going through papers dating back 10 years. I last went through these 5 years ago. Have been at my desk all day and will be here for awhile tomorrow. Will feel so good after purging through these document.

Out with the old and in with the new.

I can feel the good feeling of getting all of that done. Go you!

I'm getting into relax mode. Dinner and dishes done. Animals fed. Time to chill.

As much as you are packed with family and responsibilities right now, you are in the moment and that is just where you need to be right now so I'm really glad you are able to be there. The intensity of caring for your mom for all this time and the sharp pain of losing her is going to take over in mysterious ways for some time. And like Ocean said, there's just going to be a permanent "before" and "after" when you draw up memories. Sometimes it's sweet. Sometimes it's a kick in the gut.

Just keep taking care of yourself best you can. Drink water, sleep, realize that you too are healing.

Right now I'm eating an avocado and hoping that the health benefits "outweigh" the calorie count. lol

C0LLETTE · 07-10-2020, 02:06 PM

ATM I'm watching "Marcella" on Netflix and watching my ankles swell from the heat.
97 degrees heat in Ottawa ...tell me again how Climate Change is fake news.

C0LLETTE · 07-11-2020, 06:21 PM

Well, I finally did finish watching " Marcella " Season 3 ... a most peculiar series on Netflix.

It's a very dark British detective series that I both loved and hated...often at the same time. This often happens when the central character is a female.

kittygrrl · 07-11-2020, 07:39 PM
