I am home now. It was a wonderful trip. I got in late last night and just went and picked up Sophie from the Pampered Pet Resort laugh laugh so she's happy to be home and see her mommy.

Thanks to all who asked about me, I appreciate that. But I had a wonderful trip to Santa Fe with Nial. He is a wonderful man and I am truly blessed.

Have a wonderful day all. Going to spend time with my puppy dog now! laugh

hi all
been a while since i've been on, running a low grade fever the past few days so sleeping alot, gotta say this surgery has not been a walk in the park, and darn't it i have been so good this time( maybe that's the reason).
Some how my girl friend expects me to come up with a date and drive to erie pa for her wedding, she lost her husband to messithilioma(sp) 4 years ago, any one have any ideas? Thank God she's not getting married in alaska where she lives half the time.
there seems to be a black cloud over this house depression has knocked me to my knees again, just had a birthday, so many things going on here and i am beat . Doctor did raise my anti depressants to see if that helps.
one more week and i hope i can move the firewood 4 more cords.that puts me out 3 weeks from surgery#2 and 6 weeks from surgery #1... If I have to do number 3 does that mean three strikes and your out?lol
any way not meeting really anyone close to me on here must be my profile.... your all have a good night

Hello Dear Ones,
I feel like I just walked into home for the first time in years reading your posts. I am so frusterated trying to move forward in my life with the feeling that I am so alone in being who I am. I know I should feel some kinship to many of the people on Mingle, after all I was divorced and certainly met some real frogs in my lifetime but after a happy re- marriage ends in death it doesn't remotely feel like kindred ground. I am so tired of apologizing for thinking that marriage is a worthy relationship or trying to defend that some people actually are good and careing spouses. If I have one more person tell me I ought to be gratefully they want to get in my pants I think I am going to blow up. I want to be a complete woman not some shell with no self respect.
It is sad yet a comfort to hear that you all struggle with anniversary dates too. I will include you in my prayers. I remember the feelings that have been expressed. Dan you will feel her closer to you as your greif settles in. I know that will be hard to believe sometimes but I promise it is true. Rose Honey you have to give your body a better chance to recover. If you need help I will help you find it. Those of you who are doing the best to move forward each day we can just be each other's cheering section. Nite. (((Hug to All)))....Joy
October is my lost son's birthday and I lost my Husband in middle December. As hard as I might try Christmas is always a grind alone. That I sometimes work 16 hours a day taking care of my elderly Dad and the Princess makes me feel like I am being drained with nothing being replenished. My surviving son is so angry and because I am all that is left he projects it on me so our relationship is disentigrateing. I wonder if I will ever see him or my grandchildren again. I am so afraid of the various wars he could be caught up in doing what he does. I wonder if they bring them home will there be work or houseing for them to live in with the hurricanes pounding the coast.

{{{{Joy}}}}} Thank you for sharing such a heartfelt post. Takes a lot of guts to put it all out there! I'm Connie, first of all. I'm so glad you are here with us!!


A divorce is Nothing like the death of a spouse. As painful as I'm sure many of them are, it is not the same. Many people look at us as people who knew how to have a sucessful marriage and therefore, at least I think, at times, will say "Oh I know how you feel". As far as this "being grateful someone would want to get in your pants".....I hardly know what to say to a man that would say something like that, and trust me I am rarely at a loss for words! HE is the one with the problem, not you. We know marriages CAN be wonderful and unfortunately not everyone got the blessing of finding that out with the right person. Self respect is just that...from YOURSELF! Nobody can take that away from you and only you can do something to lose it.

I'm so sorry this month and the months coming up are difficult ones. Thankfully I'm done with all of my "anniversary" dates for this year. I can't imagine the loss of a "child". Please come here and talk with us! I watch this post on a daily basis and I know others do. I hear ya with regard to the work thing..but take some time for YOU. Even if it's just a long bubble bath with candles, or a pedicure. I would buy myself something special each December after my husband and both parents died. I do that for me.

I hope you and your surviving son can reach out to one another more often. As we know, time slips away quickly and time's awastin, as they say.

You take good care and post again. And thank you for all of your honesty.

Connie

I lost both my husband (3/07) and my mother(10/17) last year and if not for my friends and people I know here, I would not have made it thru the winter..sometimes I would just scream outloud and then fall asleep crying...Thank you all for that support...flowers flowers flowers

My name is Joy, I lost my beloved 8-10=06. I found him. It was a great shock and still is at times. I've gone through the 5 stages of grief but I'm still agrue for him leaving me and still have not accepted it. I was always the sick one I was supossed to go first. I didn't know there were groups like this....Just wanted to say Hello to everyone and sorry for you loses....Joy
