Thanks rose 45 and lonely and Barbara it’s good to vent off helps clear the mind, it made me smile about the inheritance and I do feel better today just never know when grief is gonna hit you I suppose hugs to everyone xx
Oh your story is very much like mine. I was spoilt and now left on my own have to do all these jobs. Some I can do but others I Havnt a clue where to start. People are so kind but want to be abit indepedant. I came home yesterday and my lively neighbour was so kind and cut my grass and did my edges. I was so grateful and he said it’s no bother as he is doing his own. Little kind things are so nice and so grateful. Will buy him few beers as don’t want him to do it for nothing. If you pay them you can always ask again. We were always busy in garden together and it’s horrible on your own isn’t it?
Good Luck hope you get some peace xx

You really inspire me and you’re right a list would be good, keeping busy, it’s funny because my husband worked away a lot so I was almost a single mum bringing up my boys, sorting out the dog and keeping the house up but now I feel the stuffing has been knocked out of me and although I know I can do all these things anxiety and panic gets the better of me and is impacting my life massively but I know it’s all part of grief , and the carefree soul I had then is gone forever and life has become a drudge xx
Hi
Reading all your post is good some of you are strong and getting jobs done it is so difficult to get motivated I am not managing to right now the garage will be a big job to sort out will have to have a skip I guess I not sure if I’m ready to tackle it managing to keep garden tidy I finding it so upsetting doing it on my own I was sorting bits out but feel I have taken a step backwards with the weather getting better hopefully I will get bits sorted this time last year we was together making plans for summer now all gone hard month as end this month was when my husband went into hospital all so sudden seven weeks latter he was taken my life crumbled I don’t know how I am getting through each day family I guess can not let them have any more pain

Hi rose 45 it’s early days I’m struggling at seven months such a turmoil of emotion and adjusting to a new life alone which none of us have chosen, I have days when I’m feeling fragile and just rest up and do nothing look at photos listen to music meditate just being kind to myself it’s not always good to push yourself and whatever needs doing will always be there sending love and hugs xx
