Gettin' by . . .

Do you ever look at your week and think, "I'm just gettin' by"? I didn't do diddly this week unless it was barking up my butt and even them it was with reluctance. I realized I was missing mom and in the back of my head, couldn't get past the grief feelings--sometimes they almost debilitate me.

If you're like me and feel that way, I wanted to encourage you that it is perfectly natural in our circumstance to have days, weeks and months like this---we are grieving someone who is gone and are allowed to have times where we just "be".

So, when these times sneak up on you, just love yourself and see this place you are in as part of the package. And by-cracky, you'll be alright!

peace out
