I’m dreading my first Christmas without my darling Ron this year, we used to love our cosy little time together. Ron had for his mobile ringtone the Christmas song “ let it snow, let it snow, let it snow” and it was so funny because he kept that ringtone 365 days a year , we would be out somewhere quiet in the middle of Summer and his phone would ring loudly and some people would say “ what” it’s only July or whatever month it was…
That’s why this year i am not having any Radio or TV on at all as hearing that song would break me to peices. It’s all the little things that we never paid a bit of attention to over the years now have the power to leave us sooo upset….
I’m so sorry to hear about your partner. Holidays and special occasions can be an especially painful time - and often even more so when they’re the ‘firsts’.
