What makes you laugh EACH DAY ?
Another week comes & has nearly gone & I had all good intensions regarding my routine this week, with long TO DO lists. Do you do that ? Of course that didn't go to plan, but that's okay - I am here with my man living & breathing 😁
From cleaning out the chook pen to veggie gardening to shopping at the local weekend markets; it has been a good week most of the time.
I am enjoying the very much needed rain today after planting a lot of veggies, a fig tree & a bouganvilea vine yesterday. We are in early spring here in Australia now, so I get very excited to watch buds appear, plants suddenly burst into growth & bloom, & birds, bees, butterflies & dragonflies enjoying it all.
The fish I bred from tiny fingerlings 18 months ago are growing big & going crazy in the dam as the water starts to warm up. They are beautiful silver perch. The red claw crayfish are HOPEFULLY growing within the PVC pipe raft I floated on the edge amongst the reeds & purple water lilies. Apparently, informed by my fish breeder/supplier, this protects them from their predators & they grow faster.
I am hoping 😜😄!
In sharing all of this, what may seem trivial to you right now, it is how I keep my sanity & how I LAUGH, & how I love & how I cry - amidst this weird journey Steve, especially, & I are on. It's not the life we lived 7 years ago & previous. It is very different.
Some of the things that have changed are -
During Better Times
- Our Romantic Connection
- Our Normal Holidays - we loved the same things
- Our Normal Outings
- Our Career Lives
- Our Family Connections - (Steve was always the active, sporty & fun Papa & Dad. A lot of that has gone now & the younger grandchildren, sadly will never know that Papa)😓
- Our Normal Everyday Chats
- Our Normal Everyday Laughs
- Our Shopping days & hobbies together
- Our Shopping for each other eg birthdays, Christmas etc
- Our Intimacy
- Our closeness, especially in talking & decision making
- Our creativity - we did so much together around the home & our social life.
- Our closeness & just understanding & reading each other
I know there are so many in the same, if not worse, predicament.
Are you experiencing the same or similar feelings of loss. This is grieving in a major way that just doesn't get easier.
I would love you to share your stories & I would love you to feel like you are not alone on this journey you are on.
Sharing is Caring & gives one comfort & an extra STRENGTH to get through each day 💗💗💗
Blessings until next time
