![]() ![]() He died, I had to sell the house, and lo and behold I sent the stuff to auction. But I told him that if he died I was going to send all his stuff (broken antiques, parts, boxes of junque, etc) to auction. It feels like yesterday - time has passed so quickly. Shortly will be the 6th anniversary of my husband's death. Jean, I will pray for you also for your anniversary. I've cried and chuckled reading all the posts in this thread. But just think - we will all be together again! You are missing her in your day to day life in a way you probably never imagined. HighLonesome - it does get better, but be prepared for the odd bout of tears in the most embarrassing situations. And I have photos and memories instead!īut I've never washed or thrown out his old blue plaid flannel shirt. His scruffy much-loved furniture is gone (well, except for his recliner which was in pretty good shape! ), I have a new kitchen, paint, curtains, bed, all the superficial stuff. So gradually I've changed the house into my home so that I can even return at the end of the day to a house without him. I moved to our small house in Florida and at first I didn't change a thing, but then I found that my heart couldn't stand it.

If you take down either tree right now, you may end up wishing you hadn't. ![]() One thing I know is that every time I think I should do something, I end up changing my mind. I don't think you should do anything with either tree just yet. But, I did feel bad that what I always told him about tearing it down if he died, came to be. I never really felt bad about tearing down the garage because it was such an eyesore and it was leaning. Basically, Terry hated the cat and she wouldn't leave him alone! So, cry if you need to and don't feel bad about it! That one took me by surprise because he and the cat really had a love/hate relationship. He cried when his grandmother died, when my mom and dad died, and even when our 15 year old cat died last May. Terry was one of those men who didn't cry, so he said-but there were times he did. Kind of goes back to the days where men don't cry. I don't know if this really matters or not, but being a woman, I think people expect it. I often break down in tears for no apparent reason. ![]()
