Good morning FS friends

Another day. Missed physio today as got the time wrong. Grief brain fog sucks big time. Going tomorrow instead.

Eavestrough cleaners are here. John was going to do it last fall, but got sick early November so it didn't happen. You have to know that if you have small oak saplings growing out of the troughs that they are clogged up and won't do the house any good.

John's youngest son called yesterday and will be coming by this afternoon. He has asked me to go look at some places where the memorial service might be held in this region. For this I'm grateful as there has been an underlying fear/insecurity that I won't be included in either the planning or the event itself. Despite such a long history together/apart, not sure that any of the sons fully appreciated the depth/breadth of our relationship or the close connection we had through these years.

Food wise I'm a mess. For some reason cheese and nuts keep calling me and I keep eating them. Calorie dense, not particularly filling, but the want for those foods are pretty strong. I've had cravings before, but this go round it is a feeling of "must have". Maybe it is a by product of the two weeks of adrenaline pumping and weird eating after John died and the unusual amount weight lost at that time. Body might be trying to find homeostasis again.

Another day passes

Over and out

How wonderful that the family is reaching out to you! As to your cravings....sometimes the body knows what it needs. Nuts and cheese are not bad choices, as they are nutrient-dense foods. Your journey through this grief process will be very different from any you have experienced before yet also be hauntingly familiar. I trust that you will find within yourself, a bit more strength to greet each new day and find a sliver of joy to carry you through this journey. ~ ♡ Hugs my Friend! ♡ ~

Our gutters need cleaned and repaired. I am glad that John's son called. He obviously knows you cared. I sometimes have cravings too. I love nuts but only have one a day and they are a super food. I will have a serving of cheese when I want one too. It is dairy. These are not bad foods in moderation. Hugs to you!
