That's true Shreeve, but hard to see when you're in the trenches. The hard thing for me is that the fond memories make me want H back even more. But I find that as the days/weeks/months go by, H becomes this shadow that though not here, is very present with me all the time. In the meantime, I think about what workouts I will do, where I will go for my birthday, what new hobbies I can afford to get myself into, etc.
