Trying times, hope you've healed.
Lita has been gone not quit 2 years now. I have her as the screen shot of the desk top & my phone. I still have the same CD's in the car that she had. I have reminders of her everywhere in the house. I even built a shrine to her leading into my trophy/gun room. I have some of heart work hanging the room that's to her her studio.You find that you never really "heal" - but you learn to compartmentalize and move forward or sit in a dark room all day. Me, I've opted to step back out....my new lady friend is also a widow, and understands that it's therapeutic to remember times past as a pleasant memory, milestone, etc.
Getting to this point has had it's moments, lol - guys, there's a shit-ton of VERY bitter, angry women out there.....avoid 'em like the plague and find yourself one that's adapted to HER new normal and is ready to move forward.
Prayers sent....Thanks, guys - obviously, I forgot I'd made that original post back then....too many things happening at once, I reckon.
