Hello everyone. I was with my sister today and she told me she had written a note to everyone in my favorites folder and let them all know what happened. I came on here to update a swap I am in to find this wonderful posting. I appreciate all the kind words and support so very much!!!

I don't have much time online right now except to try to get our affairs in order. I really had no clue the amount of things that have to be taken care of. It seems as if everything I try to accomplish takes at least a half a day each...3 banks to deal with took 2 days, then there is Social Security, mortages, life insurance, car titles, and the list goes on and on.

The part I am having a hard time dealing with is how simple things catch me off guard. For example, I was talking with my son yesterday and realized I had no one to help me lift heavy things. What a silly thing to start bawling over but at that exact moment I felt alone for the very first time. I know he would help me if I needed him but it is just not that same as having John here with me.

I have been keeping very busy and going to bed late and very tired which is helping me get some sleep (that and a little something from my doctor). Once I get more time, I will be able to chat a little but I just wanted to let you all know how much I appreciate you all. Kim

Kim, I am glad you felt up to posting for us. You know we do all mean what we said, if there is ANYTHING you need you email someone.
Even if it is to talk about those 'silly things' that make you cry, no, that isn't silly it is life hon. We understand.
I have been in your shoes, it is funny the things you do think of, and then the anger that you were left behind.
I do understand, and I truly do mean it. If you want to email me, I am here for you.
Just holler. Take care of yourself Kim, make sure you are getting rest. All those little things you are needing to take care of can lead you to a high state of stress very quickly without you knowing it, so take it easy. I know you know all of this. So I am just saying take it easy Kim, get some rest.
Please let us know how you are doing again.

Fran

Just wanted to let you all know I heard from Kim and she is doing as well as to be expected. She asked me to keep everyone posted and to let you all know that she will check in again as soon as possible but she is feeling very exhausted right now.

Tammy

Kym,
My sincere sympathy and condolences to you and your family.

Annie

Just an update:

She will be going out of town with Jordan for a couple days to try and keep herself distracted. She is having a hard time today with it being fathers day and all.

She said that the cards she recieved so far has really helped her through this.

If anyone else would like to send a card to her just send me an email and I will send her addy to you.

Kim,

Our prayers have been with you. If you need anything please ask. It is hard to ask at this time, but please do.

Can I give you a glimmer of sunshine? The seeds and plants I have gotten from you are going great. My son's garden looks better than some of mine! You have made his summer special.

Mark Case and family

Thank you all again for the thoughts and words of encouragement. I was out of town for a few days but came home earlier than I wanted. We have some property in northern Michigan that I have decided to sell. I found I was just too lonely and the pain was too raw to be there. I return to work tomorrow and work 3-12 hour shifts over the weekend. I cannot tell you how many things there are to do to get things in order. I have to meet with so many people to have John removed from loans and such and I must also meet with the mortgage company regarding the house. Things will work out ok since we had just enough life insurance to pay off what is necessary and my income should help cover the monthly payments. It is so overwhelming but all I can do is take things one at a time which is what I am doing. I met with our credit union's financial planner and worked out the order to do business and what should be taken care of in what order...what to pay off, what to sell, what to refinance etc. I'm sure things will work out eventually.

I haven't given up on my garden although there are more weeds that I would like to admit. I am able to go out and pick some wonderful veggies daily to eat which is really nice. I don't have any appetite so when I feel the need to eat something and don't know what, I can just step outside and pick something good. Today I had a whole lot of fresh pea pods, a large salad, some sliced kohlrabi and fried new potatoes with cheddar cheese sprinkled on top (not all at the same time:). As a matter of fact, I have so many peas and lettuce that on Monday I am meeting a rep from Forgotten Harvest to donate some...makes me feel good.

Anyway, just wanted you all to know that I am really trying to find things to keep me occupied and not get to over stressed with all that is happening. Kim

Kim, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I'm truly sorry for your loss.

Nancy
