george and tildyc

Up late too.  Just about ready to start listening to one of my physics videos on you tube.  

George- try to get some sleep. Even if you are just resting.  Staring at the screen is going to keep you wired.  Put something on in the background for yourself and lie down.  I know its hard.  I've been there.  Its why I still play something at a low level when I go to bed. Its torture otherwise.  Well, its torture anyhow but I do what I can to get sleep.  

Tildyc, It is hard when the income goes down.  I managed to keep the job I had when my husband died for 7 months but knew I would never be able to continue.  I had to be way too focused and it wouldn't have been fair to my employer.  I ended up training another woman.  I sold our home and took the proceeds and have remodeled two homes one to live in and one I am in the process of selling or renting.  Haven't worked now for a year and half. Been mainly depending on SS.  Started it at 62 and I am now 63.  Even living where I am it is cheap but SS is not enough so I need to be wise about what I do from here on in.

Of course if I have my way I wont be around long.  I am not courageous enough to do it myself but keep hoping with the diminishment of my health it will happen naturally.  Would like to join my husband wherever he might be and if he isn't it certainly isn't any better here without him.  

I really hate that we now need to deal with this horrible emptiness.

Thank goodness for this place that we come to. Otherwise – I would be completely and utterly alone. As well as everybody else here might've been. It's been a life line for me.

It is nice to have people that understand and are working through the same thing

I don't know what to say George except I and we are here for you. And we are a kindred and we all understand.

You are so right about that

Unfortunately – when Mark died my income got cut in half. So one of the things I had to give up was my Internet connection with the computer. Which is okay because I still have my phone. That's enough for now. But like I said before – we got this thread that keeps us all connected. And connection is what we all need right now.

So we can talk to each other on line

Not sure what that means about the audio chat sorry – and right now I only have my phone to communicate with everyone. But no matter what – I'm here and we are all here for you and each other.
