Sorry I've been absent. This week is always a bit difficult leading to a worse one later this month. Today was my wedding anniversary then in 3 weeks is the anniversary of losing Mac. Yah, I know I should be "over it" but while it's not nearly as hard as years past, it still gives me pause. I'm fine, just dealing in my own way. Love you guys.

I think intense love is always followed by insurmountable pain. There are some things we are never over. And that's probably as it should be, as painful as it is.

I'll be thinking of you.

NOBODY (that's not an asshole) expects you to be "over it". You and only you decide what you do about painful memories. Nothing wrong with taking care of you! We'll be here before, during, and after as needed.

Oh honey You should never feel like you have to be over it, that's the kind of thing that will always be there and will hit especially around anniversary times. Sending you the biggest hugs

No need to apologise. On the contrary, like the others before me have already said, nobody is expecting you to be "over it". Grief and dealing with painful memories is something highly personal and there's no right or wrong way. If this is the way you feel, this is the way you feel. We are there if you want to talk or want distraction, but if you feel the

world/people are too much for you right now, just take all the time you need and know we are thinking of you.

Nobody is ever “over it” when it comes to loss of a loved one.

Deadrella : ToriLok: Vin : Zelda : Mostly Phen : ♫ birdy : thanks all. I truly appreciate every word.

Has anyone actually said you should be over it? If so, they suck. Do what you have to do to take of yourself physically and emotionally. We’ll be here. You’re stuck with us.

Hilda : this makes me happy.

and yes, I have heard that perhaps I should be less "emotional" but I consider the source and move along.

Hilda : and that recipe looked delicious even with the cheese

I have a theory that "getting over" something is both impossible and unhelpful.

Lou : pretty much.
