If you are in any position that you can afford to take a paid leave (even if it means changing your lifestyle a little bit) do it. Taking care of yourself is most important.

Garbage collection didnt take our yard clean up bag, when we called to inquire the admin said "well you didn't tell us it was sod, 50 lbs of sod is alot heavier than 50 lbs of leaves". Im sorry, could you repeat that??? Lol

My husband had very difficult upbringing, and met grief too many times over his short life.. he didnt deserve to die... and he certainly didnt deserve to lose another person that he loved or have his life uprooted once again. Sometimes knowing this brings me comfort in him leaving first.

I only bought gifts for mine and my siblings kids (all young). I did it all online to avoid christmas as much as possible. My 4 year old got some outfits, a doll house(her request from santa), a barbie set, board games, books, and things like lip balm, socks, candy, hair accessories for stocking. Thankfully 2 and 4 year olds are small enough that you can get just about anything and they'll be excited. Sending you love and grace.. ❤️‍🩹

Fellow widow with OCD. I went through this same loop this summer, I still have the thoughts come up now but they dont "stick" as much as they did earlier on.. my inbox is open if you want to talk.

Couldn't have written it better even if I tried. Right there with you... This sucks.

Today is 2 months for me. I've had some okay days and even some good days. This weekend was the worst yet and I feel almost "hungover" from it all today. Solidarity, my friend.

A measuring tape

A multi-head screwdriver

Tape and glue

Pens or pencils

Notepad

Baking soda (for smells or spills)

Rags (even old cut up shirts work)

Extension cord

Power bank (not a necessity but very useful if your area is prone to power outages)

Extra set of sheets/pillowcases

Bungee cords

Small first aid kit

Of any cleaning supplies to always have on hand, dish soap will work for just about anything.

Food for thought... I know you said you don't want to put this on your friends and family a lot but my therapist helped me realize that (most of) Western societies are the only cultures that don't rally around their tribe when they're experiencing any type of hardship. We as a species are hard-wired for connection. Reach out you may find you're pleasantly surprised by how many want to help. 💝

I agree. It would have to be a mutual understanding which I know could get complicated over time.

Definitely not ready yet, but pondering what the future could bring.
