In someways I do think it's easier. When a spouse dies you only remember the good stuff. They didn't leave because they wanted to, or leave you with all the junk that we have to sort through in order to find ourselves again.
I have a girlfriend whose husband died and 3 years later she was remarried. I just think that that's the difference. We're down for the count and it takes awhile for us to regain our footing.
Glad you stopped by. It's always great to get your imput. As an outlaw with a family that I was always close to (or thought so) I think it's great that your inlaws have remained close with you. That speaks volumes towards their character.
