Hi @thisismarilynb I, too, hope today is a better day! I totally agree that our lives with our lived one will be forever entwined. I tell people I was married for 42 years, so ask me how I’m feeling in about another 40 years. Personally, I have no interest or intention of erasing my wife from my life and especially from my memories. Yes, some are painful and sorrowful, but there are so many sweet ones too.
Keeping busy is good 🙂 I’ll follow your lead and vacuum now!

Today is gloomy. When I went out to get the paper, it was drizzling. All plans cancelled. Good day to wash those pots and pans that accumulate that don't go into the dishwasher.
Have you ever had counselling? I have not seen it mentioned on any of the posts. I went to a social worker four times. Last time was yesterday. I quit for two reasons: 1) it was a 23 mile drive each way on Interstate 10; and 2) I really didn't think I got anything from it. Maybe not enough time.
