After my wife died, I couldn’t stay in our house,too many ghosts in every corner, the love and laughter in every room was too much,I am in a new home and in a new relationship, no regrets at all, my wife and I discussed it before she was diagnosed and gave each other our blessings.

House move complete, now to unpack the boxes.
The move went very smoothly which made it so much easier, the rem9val men were great i used them last time so they had met Rob and said how sorry they were that he wasn’t getting to move to my new home.
Now its time to plan some holidays oh and join David Lloyd Gym as its a 10 minute walk away.
I hope anyone that has read the post realises that you can do things on your own if you set your mind to it, its not easy but your life has to carry on making new adventures and new memories.

You are amazing Punto you make me want to move too. Seriously though you are an inspiration to us all. Our new life without our loved ones is like being a teenager again leaving home for the first time except without the excitement or the youth. Yet you exude both.
Congratulations
Tom

Hi Punto, I’m sure sure your new gym will have you lifting boxes no problem. Though for now take it slowly.
Beat wishes for your new chapter

This gives me hope and reassurance. Moving house is a great way to put the sad memories to rest - and you can take the good memories with you to your new home. This is what I would do, given the choice. When my father died, my mother changed the decor though she didn’t want to leave the house. My granny coped with widowhood by getting rid of furniture and most of the photos. The Irish Travellers have a similar coping mechanism though in their case it’s also a cultural ritual: they burn the old caravan, which is a bit drastic but gives them closure. I would simply move house, like you. It’s a lovely way to honour your husband: by marking his passing with increased energy and love of life.

Oh my goodness I was born in Lincolnshire, where have you moved to. My wonderful partner and I had planned to move there too. I will eventually. It’s only been 7weeks since I lost my lovely Graham, I’m struggling big time at the moment. I love Lincolnshire. X good luck to you I hope I will be strong enough to make a move in the future x

Hi Punto
I have no doubt you’ll make friends very soon. If I wasn’t out here in Spain I’d be over in a flash just to see if some of your joie de vivre rubbed off on me. I’m far too timid. I’m going to try my best copy you in mini steps. 
My wife was the one to make friends I just stood behind and watched. Not that I learnt anything from it.
Love your posts
Best wishes

Very nice, you are an inspiration to us all. I was born in Boston, Lincolnshire. Some of my family are still in that area. I’m in Kent at the moment so quite fR away. I’m hoping I’ll get there. Just too anxious and scared, it’s way too early, 8 can only do hour by hour. But love yo hear your story. Thank you. Keep posting to update.
Well today I went out and met a lovely group of ladies, all at various stages of grief from the Lincolnshire lovlies group.
They organise various activities so I hope to go along to a few to make new friends and at least get some adult conversations.
My house is feeling more like home and I decided that after emptying 10 boxes I can have a glass of Fizz whilst watching TV, already on box 8 but going to my sons for tea tonight so will do 2 when I get home. Tomorrow I’m going to Lunch at my daughters house near Cambridge which will be nice.
Hope you all have a good weekend. X
