**** UPDATE on post 39. Thanks for the love! ****
I'm still just so sad. Losing my brother seems to have brought back all the grief of losing my parents, too. It's just so big.
I have a great group of friends who are hosting today. It's just a get together to remember, laugh, tell stories, cry, be together in fellowship and friendship.
These ladies always make things special. Always. And beautiful. They are the rock in the storm and the light that shines the way in the dark.
I'm dreading it. It's all just too much. My stomach hurts and my anxiety is off the charts.
I think its the waiting. Waiting has never been my strong suit.
And my ex is coming. We do ok, and he knew Paul since 4th grade. That's how we met. But just add another straw to the pile. Lol.
Anyway, just a vent. I'll go and be fine. I always am. But I tell ya, it's a stretch some days.

Prayer said right now. I told God he knew who Peasville was and I know he will take care of you.

((Hugs)) to you. I'm so sorry. Lean on your dear friends today.
This quote that my daughter sent me, has gotten me through some very rough days in the last year:
"On particularly rough days when I'm sure I can't possibly endure, I like to remind myself that my track record for getting through bad days so far is 100%...and that's pretty good." author unknown
maybe it will help you, as well.

I'm so sorry. Thinking of you and hoping you laugh at least as much as you cry while you remember and celebrate Paul.

Ahhh honey I'm so sorry. I hope today had some sweet with the bitter. Thank you for taking such good care of Paul. I just saw where you posted the pics of the Googly eyes. He must have been quite a character! Any fun stories about Paul you might want to share?
