I’ve been reading all the posts I found from searching ‘anniversary’. Tomorrow it will be a year since Mike died. The posts here have talked about allowing time for reflection. I have found that to be really important, to think, to just experience my feelings, to ‘walk through it’ as a friend put it recently. I decided not to drink any alcohol this week in order to be fully aware of how I’m feeling. I don’t drink excessively but a glass or two of wine most nights has become a helpful/unhelpful habit. I’m spending the day with our children and grandson. And hoping to feel a sense of moving forward ( we still have not scattered Mike’s ashes - lockdown threw a spanner in the works as he wanted them scattered in Wales, where we lived when we first married and where both children were born).
Anyway I should sleep. I have an early start and a big day ahead. Lots of love to everyone in this supportive community.
