i am trying to post more often here,,, last time i posted on
topic of the week section..duhhh....i am out of commission in my head i
think........i am having a BADDDDDDDDDDDDDD week.....first i started my
monthly ten days early.....first thing monday my housekeeper quit on me...
leaving me with tons of work to do for the week...ALONE... then my maint.
super walked out this morning.. he was a good one too..and a big loss...
then my sister-in-law..(from my first marriage) passed away of cancer..she
was only in her early 50's...and had 3 kids... so distraught and crying
off and on today..work and at home...helpless feeling i think...i am on
xanex to help...but somethings we just have to cope with and deal with..
but gezzzzzzz give me a break soon!!!! then fathers day is coming up
as we all know..this will be my first fathers day without my dad...as he passed
last september...altimizers...etc. he was a great loss for me, as i was sooo
very close with him (being the only child) i have so many memories of him..
it will be very hard for me this sunday as i still have a hard time accepting
his loss....i will be going to the cemetary to place a balloon and flowers
and to talk to him to see how he is and to inform him of all the news he
has missed....how hard it is to accept a loss...when i read the news..which
i try to stay away from< it breaks my heart to see how many people take
life for granted...and or taking ones life....we were all put here on this
earth to enjoy life...and keep moments close to our hearts.. i only wish we
could all live forever.....in my dads passing i still try to keep in mind...
that he looks down on us all with a smile...sorry for being so down and out..
i hope this cloud passes overhead soon...as i tear up again...my emotions
over-take me at times..and things just are horrible this week.....
thanks for listening ladies...
libby.. (mary)

Glad you came to share...It helps to let it out!

This Sunday will be a tough one for you. Try to find something happy to do, maybe something you enjoyed doing with your dad. My dh died Aug. 29 last year, so this Father's Day we're doing a big cookout with corn on the cob and deviled eggs, two of his favorites. Dd wants to spend the day in bed, but I won't let her. She's 17 and was Daddy's girl! Ds is 22 and will inheirit the cooking duties! We'll probably shed a few tears, but we'll be ok. Any time you need to vent, email me. pblatz@woh.rr.com.
Take care, and hope the skies lighten up over you real soon!
Hugs, Pam

You are right, we all tend to take life so for granted until something kicks us in the teeth to remind us just how fragile it can be.
I guess the only other thing I want to say is that when you go to your father's grave to talk with him, take some time to let yourself stop and listen to what he has to say back to you.

Wow! Rough week but hang in there! Think of the good things your dad liked--maybe that will help. We talk alot about the deceased family members & memories on holidays especially--sure helps my family cope. Good luck on finding replacement employees.
Lots of hugs and prayers, Kathie
Just wanted you to know that this weekend you will be in my thoughts and prayers as well. I know this is another one of those tough holidays for your family. Please don't forget we're here for you as well. Keep strong---you've made such strides this year!
Hugs,
Kathie
