Grieving Angry Widow: March 2012
http://grievingangrywidow.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Speaking from the heart about widowhood and grief. Tuesday, 27 March 2012. The sun is shining and I don't give a shit. It's 10 weeks today. 10 weird, confusing, frustrating, angst-ridden weeks. I still can't believe he's gone. I can't believe I'll never see him again. How can that be? How can we go through life spending 95% of our time thinking about trivia when one day, in the blink of an eye, it's all over. Forever. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Grieving Angry Widow: June 2012
http://grievingangrywidow.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Speaking from the heart about widowhood and grief. Monday, 18 June 2012. Yesterday was Father's Day. Like we needed another reminder of what we've lost. I went to the grave with my 15 year old and 8 year old. We stood in the rain and put a plant and flowers on the grave. Our hearts broke. What did my children do to deserve this? Fuck off life. You suck. So I took it off, put it down and later that day I saw the chain on the floor with no ring. Oh god! I really thought the dog had swallowed it or somehow ...

Grieving Angry Widow: April 2012
http://grievingangrywidow.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Speaking from the heart about widowhood and grief. Wednesday, 25 April 2012. I'm the mother of an adult! My son turned 18 yesterday. I couldn't be more proud of him. A day of such mixed emotions. My handsome, talented boy turning into a man and his Dad not here to see it. I made a Mars Bar cheesecake. It turned out great, if I do say so myself! I am grateful that my children are healthy and here with me. I am trying not to let the grief consume me now. Links to this post. Monday, 23 April 2012. Overall, ...

Grieving Angry Widow: August 2013
http://grievingangrywidow.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Speaking from the heart about widowhood and grief. Saturday, 31 August 2013. Grief, you shall not pass. well okay so, just for today. It's a slow and tiring day and another one that has caught me by surprise. I regularly decide to knock grief on the head - it's been 19 months after all. Yeah, I know grief has no timeline, it's different for everyone, it can't be rushed yada yada yada. Yes it's sad that he's gone and I'll never forget him. But what if I start here? Right now. Start fresh. I don't really u...

Grieving Angry Widow: May 2013
http://grievingangrywidow.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Speaking from the heart about widowhood and grief. Thursday, 2 May 2013. The Shallows and The Deeps. The hardest part of this awful grief experience has been the broken promises, the awkwardness, the thoughtlesness, of some people. Knowing someone cares, having someone go out of their way to help, having someone who rings up out of the blue to say "I reckoned you're having a bad day, I care" because it's a birthday, anniversary etc, it's worth so so much. And here's the thing. it's not a question of ...

Love and Hope for Lauren. Keeping memories of Lauren alive after her incredibly brave fight against Cholangiocarcinoma (Bile duct cancer). Tuesday, May 27, 2014. I was so excited. I love Oprah and it is a 2 day event, so Sis and I will have a great time. Ok, as if we hadn't eaten enough, we went to breakfast Sunday morning at Farmer Boy. My friend, Chyrel is the manager there and Kristen worked there when she was in high school. It was nice to see Chyrel and have some great food! Mark digging the heart.

Love and Hope for Lauren. Keeping memories of Lauren alive after her incredibly brave fight against Cholangiocarcinoma (Bile duct cancer). Thursday, July 31, 2014. Just Call Me Grandma. It is still fairly quiet around here. Mark and I are working a lot. We are enjoying the summer weather. We have gone on a few bike rides, but mainly I enjoy sleeping! On a lighter, happier note, Kristen and Bruce are going to be parents! I am going to be a Grandma! Frank in his younger days. Monday, July 7, 2014. I have n...

Grieving Angry Widow: August 2012
http://grievingangrywidow.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Speaking from the heart about widowhood and grief. Monday, 6 August 2012. Focussing on what I DO have. Focus on what you have in life, not on what you don't have.". I read that line today and although at first the cynical part of me (i.e. 98%) wanted to shoo it away as more self-help clichéd nonsense, I quickly realised there could be some sense in it and perhaps it will help. Is there anything at all to be said for focussing on our loss? Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Not Even A Wren.

Speaking from the heart about widowhood and grief. Wednesday, 30 May 2012. Drawing a line through her old life. Links to this post. Sunday, 27 May 2012. How the nightmare started. I have a hundred million words stored in my head bursting to get out. Details of how D and I got to where we are today and how my life and my children's lives have changed dramatically in the last few months. However, I still have a need (an overwhelming need) to write it all down - not so much the minute detail of helpful diet...
