Warning...Pity party

I have had a hard time posting lately. I have actually had a hard time doing most anything....knitting, sewing, reading. I have spent alot of time cleaning house, cooking for Thanksgiving and crying. RacerDad trys to understand, but even he feels my grief process should be over. As he says, "It has almost been a year".

And it has, but Thanksgiving was the last holiday we spent together. Christmas she was sick and didn't want us to come, so I think Christmas will be hard. Then it will be a year in February.

I have expressed before the extreme lonliness I have felt. It is getting better. A dear friend has become as she said "my knitting Titus 2 woman" I appreciate her more than she will ever know. She calls to just chat several times a week and I look forward to her calls. Another friend sent an email last week just letting me know that she was praying for me because she knew the holidays would be tough. So God has surrounded me with supportive people and it is getting easier, I just never knew what a deep sadness could feel like.
