Wake was yesterday

Its been a month now since he has been  gone.  I had people over yesterday for a wake or memorial whatever you want to call it.  Two kinds of bite size bite size snacky things for people to munch on when they were having some wine, pop.  I also had some ham, cheese and rolls and my very favorite thing port wine cheese balls.

I bought several kinds of red wine but people didnt drink much of it at all.  I drank my bottle of white late season riesling.  It was good and sweet not ice wine but deffinately late harvest.  I have a bottle of winter white bottled by a northern michigan winery.  Art and I use to go there at least once a year and buy some wine

I need to pick up some cream de cocoa and a small bottle of Grand Marnier.  I will toast Art on Christmas eve with his favorite the Grand Marnier.  I am having spelling issues with the drinks and the snacks names to hopefully you will know what I mean.

I will never get over missing him.  It was nice to have a house ful of people yesterday and the talking and just having someone around.  I dont have any friends cause Art took all my time up.  I wanted a large family but was denied that as well.  I have issues in preceiving that I will be alone for a long time,  I so need him in my life.,

I go to grief counseling next week again.  I need to get started on the cookies as well.  Im probably going to have issues for a long time.  I so miss him.  He was my friend, the love of my life, he was the center of my universe.

  1. You are having to find a new 'normal' and that will take time. A day at a time is all you can do. (((hugs))) The problem with finding the love of your life in any relationship is that sooner of later one of us must part company and you can never be ready for that.

  2. How well I realize that now. He was suppose to have lived a lot longer so then the age wouldnt have mattered. But now Im too young for being a widow.
