If you didn't have so many responsibilities I think you might have more of a handle on what you're processing or not. Maybe when you get home you'll be able to sort things out.

I think to myself 'she is too young to be a widow'...<br />We're never ready to make this transition, it just has to happen I guess.<br />Thanks for your thoughts. And BTW, memories of your father in my mind are that he was light hearted and an optimistic person. And funny, too. :)Sarah Kleinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17381531433867772947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464163302553827777.post-43727785663622091102016-07-26T07:19:51.495+03:002016-07-26T07:19:51.495+03:00Hi Sarah,
