Welcome Sunday clubbers,
So here I sit coffee in hand remembering 16 weeks back from today in pain,
It would have been my wife’s birthday a week tomorrow,my daughter is arranging a small family gathering at her graveside to pay respects and lay some of her favourite flowers,then (if the weathers fine) cooking a celebratory barbecue,that was two of the things she loved family gathered round a Barbie hope it stays fine.

It’s 17 weeks for me now that I suddenly lost my husband , although I am now counting in months ! Last night I don’t know why but I sat by his urn sobbing , drinking anything and everything! Now I feel rough as hell! So it really will be a quiet Sunday ! I don’t know where all that came from last night?

I hope you find pockets of joy in your day, spending time with your family and remembering your wife 
I have chosen to keep the door locked today… I’ll be concentrating on me mainly, and the hobbies I enjoy…
I hope everyone can find at least a few moments to smile at something, no matter how small…

It is 24 weeks today. 24 horrible, horrendous weeks.
How can it be 24 weeks?
My Sundays are divided into two parts.
The first when my husband was still with me, when we were still a couple.
The second when he was not.
I will post elsewhere about my lovely husband, for family and friends.
Sadly, fewer of them now respond.
I will also be lighting two candles.
I will post photos of them here later today.
Sending you love, hugs and understanding.

Twelve miserable weeks for me.
I really try very hard to stay positive, but weekends are so empty.
I have tried inviting friends, but it doesn’t seem to suit my daughter.
It also means extra work for me, cooking and cleaning, and as it always seems to be me that suggests a visit I am beginning to think that I have become a duty. So, I have decided to stop asking.
I feel quite hurt that all the support and help offers that seemed so genuine have quickly evaporated.
I have reverted to just trying to get through the next hour and pray that I will feel more positive tomorrow.
I hope that today will be as good as it can be for everyone here. Xx

I understand.
It is sad that friends drift away.
Some immediately after the funeral.
I know we are not physically there with you but we are thinking of you.
I know this may be a silly idea but perhaps one Sunday, we could all agree a time
for lunch or even just a mug of tea or coffee and sit down together and exchange posts?
Sending a big hug,
Rose xx

10 months for me, and it’s John’s birthday on Thursday. I was going to scatter his ashes at sea as he had wanted, but don’t feel up to it. I can’t let him go just yet.
