Glad you made it through! Holiday weekends can be a bear sometimes…
Two unasked for suggestions. Feel free to tell me to get stuffed if you like 
Exercise will help with stress, sleep, and dealing with major emotions. And obviously it will be good for your physical health as well.
Therapy is a great safe place to let out a whole lot of stuff. As much as it hurts, it will get through to the other side.
Both of these things kept me sane during some very dark times. I can’t recommend them enough.
but you did make it through Dawg, and thats what counts.
bluepaintred said, “but you did make it through Dawg, and thats what counts.”
She’s right, and we know that it took a lot of strength.
I have absolutely nothing encouraging to say.
Just that I promise to never, ever get tired of hearing about how sad it still is, or that you should be “over it already”.
Ohhh, Puppy. 
Dawg, it’s good to feel. I know it hurts, but it’s better to feel than be numb. It really is.
((((hug))))
LisaB- I hear ya… unfortunately exercise is something I’ve NEVER done enough us… and my last therapist and I really didn’t see eye to eye. Maybe I really should think about joining a gym.
bluepaintred- True that… true that… I’m just not looking forward to doing this every week.
Geeky- I assure you it wasn’t my own strength that got me through this… definitely not my own…
Britt- This is why your husband is the luckiest man in the world… and would follow you to Egypt if you felt the need to sell sand to the beaches.
Poppy- I know what you mean… it reminds me that yes… I am still alive… and that’s when I feel the guiltiest. But ((((hugs)))) always makes me feel better… 
“In each of us two natures are at war… the good and the evil. All our lives the fight goes on between them, but one of them must conquer. In our own hands lies the power to choose. What we want most to be we are.” – Dr. Henry Jekyll
Guiltiest?
...
:(
I see what you’re saying, but I’m over here in the corner being very glad that you are alive.
I know where you are coming from. I still think my sleep is off after the death of my sister. I used Simply Sleep some nights. I know my dad used a sleep aid as well. It may be something to consider.
I won’t even try to say something because I think at this point, you’ve heard it all Just know that I’m sending you some *hugs* from Las Vegas.

I have been thinking a lot about you this weekend. My thoughts are always with you. I agree with everyone who has commented thus far. ((((Dawg))))<-great big hugs!
I don’t know what to say to you at this point. Holidays are very hard when you’re missing someone, is all I know.
Too bad we don’t live closer. I need a kick in the ass to excercise. We could do it together.
Hang in there, my friend. You need me, I’m here.
I know. I get through the week ok and then Friday night has me gasping and sobbing. I know not to make any plans because it is the worst part of the week to get through.
Keep on keeping on, that’s my only advice.
