One of those days

Have you ever had one of those days where you just feel broken inside? The feeling like the smallest little thing is going to start you off and every moment is a struggle to hide what you are feeling?

Day 26: Memory

Sorry it’s been a while since my last post.  I had full intentions of posting this weekend but then I got word that my great aunt Gayle died on the 3rd.  This put me in a bit of a funk, since the beginning of March is full of a lot of loss.  The first of March is the anniversary of my grampa passing, and today is the anniversary of my dad passing.  Her death just brought back a lot of feelings for me and put me in a place where I needed to work through a lot of stuff.

I just miss them all so much and when there is another loss, I feel the grief all over again.  So this post is dedicated to my Grampa, Aunt Gail and my Dad.  I love you all, miss you all and you’ll never be forgotten.
