Grief
Grief doesn't mean that you can't enjoy your life anymore. Write about this in your Blog entry today.
Grief. My mother died 6 months ago and it has been rough for me. I didn't want to go anywhere or do anything. I just stayed home. My cousin, son and I went to Mom's house to clear stuff out of it. I bought home: her China Hutch, grandfather clock, dishes, photo albums, Dad's Air Force Memorial table with his plaques, medals and other things. I bought home Mom's dolls and journals and jewelry. I bought home other things that comfort me.
We had tornado warnings out. We don't have a basement. My cousin called and wanted me to come over to her house to the basement. I said Mom died 6 weeks ago and my life is over. I didn't go. We didn't get a tornado. I appreciate my cousin caring about me. We are very close.
I don't go to Church like I used to but I pray and read my Bible. I used to sit with Mom since Dad died. I get knee pain and I need the handicapped parking space. I have to get there 45 minutes to get my parking space Some days, I don't feel well. I go to Church when I can.
My cousin wanted me to shopping and out to lunch. I take my meds and I went. My cousin and I had fun. I missed Mom. My cousin and I shop and she comes over and does my hair. My friend from Mississippi came home and she and Mom used to hang out together. We went to Mom's grave and we went shopping. We talked about Mom.
I am able to do things again. My knee hasn't bothered me much. Maybe my knee replacement helped. I go places Mom and I went and maybe she is with me. Grief. I am still sad and cry at times but I see Mom's picture every day. I am able to find joy again. My cousin and I are going to Lake Michigan next week and Kate Spade. Mom loved Lake Michigan and shopping. I need to find joy and we do have to go on. That's what I am doing. I dream of Mom sometimes. She is always shopping. I want to be happy but I will keep Mom in my thoughts. We can have joy even with grief. With time, things get better. Mom's in Heaven. She isn't sad. I want to see her there. We will all be happy in Heaven and there will be no grief and sadness. Just joy. I am working towards that. |
