Thanks. Honestly, I mostly do remarkably well. But it hits me at the most unexpected moments. I've allowed myself to just let it be what it is: grief is normal. I can sit with it. I am very fortunate to have my kids near me (and one still living at home while he finishes his degree - he graduates in December - woohoo!), and I have been bolstered by SO many friends and even people I honestly didn't know (my husband's former coworkers for instance). It's the too much time on my hands thing that is a bit of an issue right now, but it will be short lived and in about a month I'll probably already be wishing for time off. LOL.
