I have found that coming to the board and either reading others stories or just journal-ling is helping me. Each time I feel the urge to think about what H is doing, or try to figure out where he may be I starting reading and posting. I realize I may have an obsessive personality (one of H's complaints) and I'm just "trading in" one obsession for another, but it does feel like this board may be a "healthier" obsession? Reading and realizing that there are others in similar situations helps me feel a little less alone and a little less like a failure.
This!^^ This is what helped me get through the toughest times; the loneliest times during the holidays. The people on these boards are so good for giving advice, love, support...solace. And hope.
On another note, maybe if you make it a project with your kids to create some of their own artwork to put on the walls? Just to fill in the spaces? That would be something that you could then look at each day to make you smile!
