As we leave 2022 and move into a new year I feel as if I’m leaving my husband behind. It hurts so much. I had him for the first three months of this year but won’t for next or any other years. This seems harder than Christmas. I know it’s ‘ just another day’ but it seems so significant somehow.
Dawn, I also listen to my husband’s voice on video clips. There is one️ in particular where I had a video of a fire burning on the tv. He said ‘that’s a view of where I’m going’ It sums up his rather dark sense of humour and I can’t help but smile when I hear it. I agree about all the happy new years . I just mutter, you too. I’m glad it’s out of the way now. Tomorrow would be our 42nd wedding anniversary. That’s going to be another hard first. X
