    Lost my son

    Thank you for the continued thoughts. I go through the motions each day. Sometimes I feel it hasn't really hit me yet, then other times I am bowled over in an instant. My mom is in the hospital tonight and my FIL was diagnosed with aggressive cancer a month after our son died. It seems to me...

    Lost my son

    Thank you all. I hope you are all well. We are continuing with our cows for the moment, although our hearts aren't in it. It is also snowing here today (Spring in upstate NY), and we have a calf that was due Monday and isn't here yet. (Our mamas always go a 5-12 days early). Hoping she hasn't...

    Lost my son

    Just wanted to let you all know I am still standing. (ish). It has been harder than I could have ever imagined. Feels like the light went out in the world. The enormity of it is overwhelming. Sorting through his clothes yesterday and today; they still have his scent. Putting them in the washer...

    Lost my son

    Silver, thank you for your message. Every little bit of good helps right now. Told my husband it feels like you're drowning and trying to build a life raft out of toothpicks. Gonna take a lot of toothpicks so we are appreciative of every kind word and thought. Picked up his ashes at the funeral...

    Lost my son

    Thank you. Just got home tonight with his things. Out-of-body experience.I left one shirt hanging in his closet in his apt because I couldn't bear to see it empty. His grocery list on his desk did me in. Slippers on the floor, the book he was reading by the bed, some postcards he was getting...

    Lost my son

    Thank you, TT. We too are at a loss. Going to pack up his apt 4 hrs away tomorrow. Gonna be hard. (And if one more person tells me they know it's not the same, but when they lost their cat.....or their neighbor's cousin's kid died...I know they mean well but....).

    Lost my son

    Thank you all again for your kind thoughts. We somehow made it through the services, don't know how we are still standing. Phone pings with a text and for a minute I forget and think it's him. Every one please go tell someone they haven't told in a while (maybe ever) that you love them. My son...

    My son and only child passed away today in an accident. He was a wonderful young man. He was everything to me and his heartbroken dad . I don't know how we will get through this.

    Could become riches Woman.........

    Thank you. We sure are quick to judge women's looks in this country even when the guy is a total dork. Had she been 10 lbs heavier, someone somewhere would've said they'd marry her and help her spend that $ but only if she dropped a few #. 8)

    Being cold is relative............

    Worked outside all day Sat since it was in the mid 30s and sunny, low wind for once. Felt like spring.

    New BP guidelines...........

    Similar stuff. Autonomic. Get caffeine and salt in you asap each am--electrolyte drink works well. I use those drops you can put in water, or the powder. Dr. once told me to eat a few spoonfuls of salt a day. :yuck:

    Forced to cut hair.....

    Seems like since he had a cap on, which had been allowed all year, they shouldn't change the rules as he was literally starting a match. Kinda humiliating for the kid, and not very respectful to him or his family, to chop his hair off in public like that.

    Dick’s May Have to Close 35 Stores

    " boondocks wrote: Just to clarify, what they decided to stop selling was assault rifles, and gun sales to people under 21. I have no love lost for the chain. Only time I was ever in one (20 years ago), the staff was rude, and I swore I'd never step foot in one again. But they adopted...
