PIB -- I'm so sorry about your friend.

I'm glad, though, that you and h are working together to get those endorphins flowing!

I am very sorry to hear about your friend.

I understand the grief and think you should expect it, that it is normal.

I am glad you feel better today.

Hey PIB! ((((PIB)))))

I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. Grief can look like depression, sweetie. Don't be too hard on yourself. I've worked in hospice for a good chunk of my life, and want to tell you one thing I learned along the way:

Grief looks different to every single person.

Let yourself feel the emotions, PIB. Your friend was important to you, and it's healthy AND normal to feel loss when someone is taken from you.

Sending you hugs.

Good Morning PIB,

Sending you lots and lots of Warm thoughts and hugs today!

I know grief has to be worked through because if you don't I think it causes more problems later.

Just don't forget to live as well. I did that and I know where that can lead.

You have a wonderful new R and wonderful H and you are WONDERFUL!!!!!

Have a great day.

Love you girlfriend

Hiya Pam,

Thank you for the hugs.

I'm working through it.

I feel much better today. Didn't work out with Husband this morning..but I think I'm still riding on the endorphins from yesterday.

Also, the service WILL be held...and that was part of my problem.

Her daughter is in charge of the service and the things I was hearing about her daughter was causing me to feel that not only was my friend gone..but she was being disrespected.

So...I feel better now.

Hugs!

I am so glad to hear you feel better and the service is going to be held.
