I woke up on Thursday with a small fever. Because I haven’t been sleeping well, I decided to take some time, do a little laundry and watch some mindless TV. I wanted to nap too, but that was not to be.
The nose, brow and forehead are painful. I tried taking the pain medication, but it seemed to keep me awake. So it’s Motrin for me.
In fact, despite my exhaustion, I simply cannot get a good night sleep! I’ve been waking 2 or 3 times in the night and finding it tough to get back to sleep.
I’ve done some cooking and canning, making my Heavenly Peach Jam and a batch of the best bread pudding ever!
Just staying busy. I’m trying not to think deep thoughts, but they keep coming up anyway.
I guess this is grief.
I am so sorry MB and know how you feel. I lost my Mom, very suddenly due to a massive stroke, last Oct 10th. It’s hard losing the woman, who gave birth to you and gave you life. You are in my prayers. Take the time to cry, grieve, and feel those feelings. I still am grieving myself, not sure I will ever get over it. May God be with you and your family at this time, and the times in the future.
God Bless~

My heart breaks for all you’re going through. I lost my mom in 2000, my brother in 2002, and my dad in 2006. I’m here to tell you that if you continue to trust in God, He will see you through. You will have many days where it’s hard to even crawl out of bed, but each day will get just a little easier than the one before. Praying that God will provide you with comfort and peace during this difficult time.
Grief is different for each person…your Mom’s passing has made me think about how I would want people to feel when I pass. It’s interesting following that thought for awhile.
