Today

I do believe that today is going to be an exhausting emotional day. It will be spent with Wade's family, None of mine will be able to be there and for various reasons that are all valid. It isn't that they don't want to be and if they could they would. I understand and it's OK. I'll head out about 9:30 this morning and no telling when I'll get back home.

I'll leave you with a couple pictures I took while out on my Sunday morning walk

I walked through the park and looking up into the trees it gave me a peaceful easy feeling.

Hi Ann, Praying for you early this morning. May the Lord give you peace and strength for today. There are so many of us that wish we could be there in person. Please remember you are in our hearts. xo

Anne, we are all a lot stronger than we think and our thoughts sometimes make things appear worse than they really are. I'm sure you'll get through today okay, be strong.
Hugs from afar

I wish you weren't making that long drive by yourself - Today I am out of words, but, as is the tradition, I am sending over a nice lasagna - (well in spirit anyway.)

Dear, dear Ann ~ I came here from Betsy's blog, 'Joyful Reflections'. She asked prayer for you because of your recent loss of your husband. I will pray for you.

Right now, you are in what is called 'the widow's fog'. It is a sort of buffer zone from reality. You are also in shock. You will make it, you are stronger than you think or feel at the moment.

I know, I've been there. My dear husband went to be with his Creator 9 Dec. 2012. My husband also paid the bills from his computer, but I've learned how to do it and can hear him saying 'atta-girl'.

Blogging and gardening, finding a Christian widow's group, reading my Bible and prayer, plus love from others has helped me to grow as I walk in this journey of widowhood. It isn't easy, it is doable, God has been my strength. I can't have what I had, but each day is a gift and God is working all things out.

Just continue to take life one day at a time. Lock memories into your heart. Cry if you need to. Don't let anyone tell you how or how long to grieve. We are all different. I can still break down into tears, just not as often or as much as I did in the beginning.

Love, hugs & prayers for you ~ FlowerLady

Lin left a comment on my blog about you since she knows my husband died suddenly too. If I can help in any way leave a comment on my blog terragarden.blogspot.com or send me an email thekilns1 @ hotmail.com I recently wrote a post about recovering, it is a long journey. Flowerladylorraine is also a dear blog friend of mine. One thing I suggest is wait several months and join a Griefshare group, they meet in churches around the country.

Being out in nature *always* calms me and gives me peace. Mother Earth has that capability and uses it so well, for our benefit. Lovingly, Andrea XOXO

What a lovely walk you had. That tree shot is so pretty. It's good that you are taking time to quietly reflect and enjoy God's creation.

Beautiful photos. Continue taking your walk and taking the photos. This is great therapy for you at this time.
