I just laid in bed and then got up and ate my feelings again. I’m just getting fatter and fatter and it’s not helping but I can’t concentrate on dieting right now so **** it.


I wish I could cry. I know I’ll be crying my eyes out at the funeral but so far I haven’t cried at all except for a tear or two on Monday. I don’t know why it’s so difficult for me to cry. I’ve always been this way. When my dad died I only cried for like a minute or two after mom told me and then not again for years. I cry out of frustration and sometimes when I’m severely depressed. I cried a lot when my husband died but even then it was only for a month or two then it ceased. I don’t know what my problem is.


Well RS is on his way to comfort me. I feel bad relying on him so much when we just started dating three months ago. Of course we all though my father in law would have more time. We didn’t know it would be five months.


Sigh. At least I showered. I don’t know when the last time I showered was. I think Saturday but I’m not sure. I’ve been washing my hair but I need to wash my *** too lol.


Saturday is going to suck.


Try and go easy on yourself. His passing is bringing back the lost of your husband and BIL.

It’s ok to not WANT to go to work but as you mentioned you like this job. You have the strength to manage it, even when you don’t think so. You are much stronger than you can imagine.

Maybe try and focus how this will effect your son , he’s certainly old enough to have problems. My daughter lost my father at age 6 and she was very aware what losing him meant , them she lost my mom at 11.
Lost her great grandmother at age 8 all huge losses, I just made sure she knew to talk to me. Which she did thankfully.

I’m so glad you have RS In your life. He sounds like a wonderful man.

Hang in there hun
