I finally had a Dad Dream. It was good to see him. At least, it was the first dream I remembered. My mom has dreams of him all the time.

JB - we all wished our dads would come back. When my dad first passed away, I dreamed almost every night that he had come back. It was good to talk to him again, even if it was in my dream. I know how you feel - I miss my dad so very much. The first few months after my dad died I felt like I couldn't breathe. It was like someone was literally squeezing the air out of me. I can breathe now, but I still miss him and I cry almost every day. Eventually, you will have some better days again. Getting lots of sleep helps. For some reason, grieving makes you very tired and exhausted. Take good care of yourself - your dad would want you to!

JB - I know how you feel.  I wish my dad (and mom) would walk through the door and everything would be like it was when we were happily together.  I'm sorry you are hurting so badly.

Tina - we loved our dads still and loosing them is horrendous, so we are going to be tired.  So, I'm thinking we need to be easy with ourselves any time we can without be irresponsible or unhealthy.  But, I do like what your boss said about get your A out of bed and your head will follow.  That sounds like something my dad would say, so it made me giggle.  My dad and I used to own a flea market business together, and the guy in the next booth ended up being my dad's best friend back when they were in their early twenties.  Well, the way those two would talk to each other.  My dad would get sick, and Harry would say to him, "Get your A up outta that bed and get back to work you lazy SOB.  You're just acting sick, so you won't have to work" and my dad would laugh.  Women sure don't talk to each other that way, but my husband told me that is how men who are bonded interact.  I went to my parent's grave tonight.  It still hurts so bad.  I don't think I'll ever quit grieving.

Something I've noticed lately is how exhausted everything feels. Relatively speaking, I've been in a good mood. There are good things going on and I've been taking the time to make sure that I enjoy them. I've noticed, though, that enjoying them sometimes takes a lot out of me. And then, there is just the sheer exhaustion. This week has been tough... regular things that would make me tired (work, allergies, working out, socializing) make me super tired. An old boss used to have a great saying: get your a** out of bed and your head will follow, and I always keep that in my head when I just want to stay in bed all day. It does seem to work. I know that the uber-tired is part of the grief process, but I wonder how some folks handle it. I'm trying to be mindful and listen to when I just need to take it easy, but sometimes I am forcing myself to keep going and that does seem to get me over the hump.

Welcome to all. Thanks for sharing your stories. It truly helps me.....knowing I can come here and I'm not alone learning how to live without my Dad.
