@mercerspring Facing the emotional side of loss can be difficult enough without adding the legal and financial issues on top of it all! Grief piled on with anger, frustration, loneliness can certainly make us feel like we are in a bed of quicksand.

I agree with @thisismarilynb, that is seeing a professional counselor may help you address the issues head on and experience life as you want to, again. When I have gone through loss, I took to writing letters to that person to get my frustration out. Being able to to that, I could relax and deal with practical issues.

How are you doing today?

Same old, same old. It is very hot so I am not going outside. I don't need to cook because I have a couple of things in the fridge that I just have to pop into the Microwave. But I feel more like a salad. So when I get hungry I think that's what I will do. Spent several hours in bed just going from channel to channel on the TV. Not much of interest to watch. Finally bestirred myself and put in a load of laundry. Trying to clear up issues in my mind. Should I stay put or go to independent living? When I actually got down to it and did the math I found it was much more sensible to stay where I am and have our things around me. Next step is figuring out what will happen when and if I can no longer care for myself. This is much more difficult because there is nothing concrete to build on So I am in the information gathering phase. It all helps to take my mind off the bad stuff.
I notice it is hot all over the world. This is what climate change is. Why can't the powers that be figure it out?
All take care.
