What doesn’t kill us makes us stronger. I think I am at Hercules level!! I sure missed y’all but working and surviving has been about all I can manage. I am taking control of the situation and getting my health back. Being widowed is not for the weak!! #livinglifewidowed#smilethroughthetears

🎉 Facebook recognized me as a top rising creator this week! I could not reach my goals without my peeps! A VERY SPECIAL thank you to those who read and share the “scribbles” that I write. Some are pinned at the top of my wall. #livinglifewidowed#livelifeinfullbloom#smilethroughthetears#grief

I am more “me.” I do things for me. I think about what I want. I set goals for me. I make plans for me, I have a “bucket list” for me. I miss him but he is in Heaven and I must make a life for myself on Earth. #livinglifewidowed#CovidWidow#griefjourney

Here is my wish and hope for the best year possible for all of my friends!! #livinglifewidowed#newyear2024#glimmersofjoy#sprinklesofhappiness

Hello peeps! I hope that all are doing well. I am sick but slowly recovering. #livinglifewidowed#NYE#griefjourney#writersofinstagram#covidwidow#myhusbandlivesinheaven#widowsofinstagram#widow

If all you did was survive last year then you did great. All that you have to do is survive next year BUT my hope, wish and dream for each and everyone of you is that someday you learn to LIVE again and to not merely be alive. #livinglifewidowed#smilethroughthetears#liveanddonotmerelybealive

I can grieve and still smile, find glimmers of joy, enjoy things in life that are meant to be enjoyed. You will see me laughing, smiling, socializing, while my very soul is bleeding with pain and agony. #livinglifewidowed

Done working for the day so now for a cup of coffee before chores. Did I say that I LOVE my job? #livinglifewidowed#livelifeinfullbloom#itsmybirthday#coffeelovers

Yes. This is very accurate, literally, for me. I have been ripped of by contractors and now it is so much worse. (Sigh) #livinglifewidowed#griefjourney#smilethroughthetears
