I'm in that state of mind, where everything is overwhelming. Nothing feels calm or easy. I don't have the strength to accomplish anything different right at the moment. Maybe soon. I feel like my boat is precariously tipping and I'm about to be submerged. I'm not sure it would be worth seeking the surface again.
I know I sound stupid.
It's just where I'm at right now. A bit confused. A lot lonely (mostly of my own making). Unable to change things. Easily scared.
I miss them both. Very much. I just don't know how to grieve right, I guess.
This is my sister. Not the best photo, I know. She'd had a stroke, so she had that look. She looked beautiful in her casket though. That sounds crazy, but it was true. She looked peaceful, and painless. She held a sign that said "Return to Sender". What a sense of humor. She knew. I didn't believe her.
The horses are still in their boxes. I can't bring myself to open them. I feel like maybe I can do it, then I chicken out. I wish I was stronger. I'm scared my blue dish will be in one of those boxes. I don't want it back. I was supposed to visit to get it.
This is just stupid. So stupid. I can still hear him telling me. I just kept saying "What?". It doesn't feel anymore real today than it did then.
Excuse my random thought process. It's pretty much how my brain is working right now.

Oh, honey, wish I could just give you a hug. As I've said, grief sucks, and there is no easy way through it. When I read your blog, I recognize those random, confused, all mixed up thoughts. Sometimes I think I'm just losing what little sanity I ever had. I never seem to complete a thought or task anymore. You're in my thoughts and prayers.
Thank you Mrs. G. I know you understand. I'm sorry that you understand. It just sucks sometimes.
Hugs, hugs, and then some more hugs going out to you, LL. Tonight - and especially tomorrow...
Oh, honey.
Wow, that's the same exact way my MOM started this.......
I do feel for you. I know. Yes, I know. I just don't know what it'll be like in a year. I guess it'll always suck. Yes, it sucks. It bites. But this is what we're left with. And there's a reason we're left. Don't forget that. You may not know the reason, but it's there.
Peace, hon.
Peace and hugs.
