Thanks for asking. Doing well. Just hoping to find some things to dream about again. And working at finding myself again after 32 years of marriage ( he’s been gone 6 years now) and 37 years of being a stay at home mom ( last two - of 5- just graduated college this spring) . Just can’t seem to remember how to look forwards when missing my spouse, the life we held ( had to also sell house and move states due to finances) and my kids ( or more specifically my role as mom- they are all fiercely independent, which I love… but here I am alone. ). Arg! I am going to counseling and I think that I’m at the point where I need to shed my cocoon and try to fly. But I kinda don’t remember how. (:
Thanks again.

I know exactly how you feel. I use the heat as an excuse to stay in the house. I just can't go out. Only to doctor appointments. I have just started counseling. Hope it works. Otherwise life becomes only existence. If you can't fly. Aim lower. Ride a bike.
Stay well.
