First 5 days of the year - mornings full of energy and hope, out and about doing things, come afternoons back at home feeling horribly empty , sad and lonely.
This seems to be the new normal sadly 
, may need to stay out longer and only come home to eat & sleep 
.
Hope everyone has better days
Take care X

Hi @ Billie7
Just like @Angel1309 said feeling a bit down after the last 5 days into the new year.
1st year without my husband feels so strange last year we spent it together 
this year i like many others here spend it alone.
I keep myself busy during the day shopping libraries shopping bus trips. I hate being in the house alone but i know i have to come back to the emptiness quiet loneliness.
Hope everyone is doing ok today
Trying to stay strong and carry on
Take care

It is difficult at night and it doesn’t help that it is dark by 4pm. I can keep busy during the day but like you struggle at night. It is really odd because I am very tired but still can’t sleep longer than a couple of hours. I am trying to walk for an hour a day but the rain is making difficult though here in the Northwest is not as bad as some places. Take care and stay in touch. Xx

Hi Lynne
I know. It would be great to go to bed and sleep until March. I am so envious of people who can sleep. I have never been a good sleeper but this is ridiculous. Ever since he died and actually when he was ill I barely get 3 hrs at once. And I have tried everything except sleeping tablets. Hope you are ok. X
