Let me tell you...
About things I get asked since Mike died....
I frequently get asked to talk to people who have recently lost a loved one. Whether it be a fellow widower, daughter, girlfriend, friend, niece, nephew, uncle, aunt, etc...I get asked how do you do it? How long does it take to get better? I hate seeing my friend this way, she's not the same, will you talk to them (first off, you suck! You're being a terrible friend, no they will never be the same, and thats ok, love them for the new person they are becoming, chances are they will become a better, stronger, more amazing person). Will I ever be ok? And so much more, these are just to name a few.
It's such a compliment to be asked to talk to these hurting people, but I hate it at the same time, get it!? No? Ya, me either. To all those friends and family members of these people who have come to me for guidance, thank you, from me and from those loved ones (they may not say it, or may have a funny way of showing it, but deep down it means more to them then you will ever know, that you cared enough to go out of your way to ask for guidance) so thank you. You are good peeps.
I get asked how are you? What are you doing these days? Are you dating anyone yet? Isn't it time you move on? Mike would want you to be happy, you know? Etc....
It's been nearly two and a half years since my sweet, crazy, goofy, life loving of a man has passed on. My life has been a roller coaster ever since, I have changed for the better and I really love the person I have become from it.
Do I miss Mike......everyday, every second
Do I still love Mike.....with every fiber of my being
Have I moved on....i can't say I have "moved on" what does that even mean!? To be honest I don't know, but I do know one thing. I am happy. And to me that's all that matters.
Am I dating anyone.....no, and if I was, to be honest it's nobody's business but my own.
Where am I at these days.....I am a wondering gypsy doing what I need to do to make a happier, better me.
To all those sweet people who have unfortunately lost someone, first my heart and whole big loving heart goes out to you. Secondly, you will smile, you will love, you will laugh, you will be happy again. You just have to get there, so take a deep breath put on your big girl/boy britches and grab life by the horns.
To all those who want to curl up and die, I know where you are, and I know where you can go. Don't give up, don't lose faith or hope. The world will keep spinning and moving on (as much as you and I would sometimes like it to stop) tomorrow will come, people will move on, you will gain friends and lose friends. Time will only tell when you will be happy again, but I PROMISE you will be happy again. Going through this I have learned that each death is different and every single soul deals with death differently. And it's great it makes us, us.
One day I will tell ya'll how I dealt with the loss of my Meeskle but for now I'm done with this rambling post and will leave you with a picture of the handsome devil.

Life as I know it...
I had one of these blogs a while back, i had tried to portray myself as all the other blogs i followed (girls i had gone to high school with) and write about my perfect life, perfect man, and all the great things we shared and did together, unfortunately i slacked at it big time and only managed to write 3 posts. Looking back i wish i would have kept up on it a lot more so i would have the wonderful memories of those 2 great years i spent with such a beautiful man.
Seeing as how i didn't keep up on it, and seeing as how the gorgeous man passed away, and how my life has completely and utterly changed from the person that used to write the old blog, i thought i would start brand spankin new.
So here we go.....
I am a widower perse...I will not be writing sappy, sad, emotional stories (unless it's one hell of a day and i need to vent.)
I don't have a cute monkey chubby butt child to write hilarious, funny, cute stories about.
And last but not least I do not have a new dashing man that has swept me off my feet to write about....
So you think to yourself, what in the hell is the girl going to write about!? To be honest, I'm not sure yet either, i just know there are some things that should be documented forever and kept in my lil brain to have and to hold forever and when i grow older (say in 2 years) and forget all these wonderful memories, stories, pictures, shits and giggles I will have this piece of work to come back to and give me a smile on a rainy day.
That is all for today my pretties....
ending with much love,
Rach.
