I Made It

 


I got up really early and did go to the lake.  That is about an hour's drive for me.  It was a glorious day!  And after I sat and had my initial cry as soon as I got there, I got on with thoroughly enjoying the beautiful day. My closest neighbors are wonderful, and treated me to lunch as well as an open door for drinks and the bathroom.  My water has been cut off for the winter months, and I can't stay at my house until that is turned back on-----and a whole lot of dust and bugs and dirt is gotten up.  As I said, it's been about 2 years since I was there last.  It was very emotional, and so strange without Marlee with me.  My world looks a whole lot different than it did just a couple of years ago.  I am totally exhausted.  I have only been home an hour, so I got in some driving in the dark which I haven't done in years either.  The trip was really good for me in so many ways.

Sounds a bit cathartic and that's always a good thing.

Good for you! Prayers, Angie; it's so good to hear from you and know that you're taking things one day at a time. Believe me, I know how deeply you miss Marlee. Sending big hugs~

Two years is a long time. It must have been overwhelming. And I understand about coming back to a house that has been closed up and turned off. Will you spend the summer there or just off and on? I'm glad you have that place and look forward to hearing more about your life there.
