I'm also a widow. When I was growing up I always loved to read Nancy Drew so I had to click on your link when I saw that. <BR/><BR/>My blogs are http://www.weepingwidow.com and http://joy-spreader.blogspot.com <BR/><BR/>The joy one is new. I thought I should make something to help look on the bright side of life. :)<BR/><BR/>lindaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3662336582303073160.post-55892390412973483002009-01-16T15:39:00.000-06:002009-01-16T15:39:00.000-06:00Thank you all for your comments. Note to Jenny: I ...Thank you all for your comments. Note to Jenny: I have old Nancy Drew books, too, and I guess some of them have a bit of value. (from the 1930's and 40's) Probably not that much. Ms. Judy, I think that our author of Somewhere on the Masthead, got a raw deal. Unfortunately, there's a lot of that going around. Mary, thank you as always for your comments. My sis seems okay with "her guy" as the reference to a man-friend of his age. Nancy W - hmmm.. I assume someone left your blog for mine or vice versa. I did look at it, but could not recall ever visiting it.jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02598544917785126150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3662336582303073160.post-52116487353520618712009-01-15T23:10:00.000-06:002009-01-15T23:10:00.000-06:00Hello, I just wondered in for the first time tonig...Hello, I just wondered in for the first time tonight. I was sucked in by your title.

I've settled on "sweetheart". Maybe it sounds old-fashioned, but there's no confusing the relationship. There's a certain respect and dignity, too.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06875495143678170111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3662336582303073160.post-15413003525171232262009-01-12T16:12:00.000-06:002009-01-12T16:12:00.000-06:00I found your blog through your comment on "Somewhe...I found your blog through your comment on "Somewhere on the Masthead". I saw your comment about being a widow. Me, too. And north of Houston in the Lake area. I lost Gene Sept 26, 2005 -- my sister's birthday. That morning when her phone rang she thought she was getting her annual birthday song, but instead was the news that he'd had a heart attack. 49 forever. No history or family history of heart problems. Quite a shocker. It hurts in that stunned way for a while. Then gets more bearable. Then you can breath again. I invite you to visit my blog and go back to that Sept 2005 time-frame if you'd like to read what it was like for me. I finally quit writing abt my grief because it stressed my family out so much that they couldn't "do anything" for me ... so I just let them off the hook and didn't post it anymore. Still miss him, some days more than others ... some days it still hurts and some days it's just a funny rememberance. There's nothing to be done but to get through it. I'm fortunate that my in-law family still is an active part of my life. It's a connection I didn't want to lose .. and they're terrible about keeping in touch so I feel very fortunate. I buried myself in work for the last three years, now am getting tired of it and hoping to get out and see some of the world again. I finally feel like it again. That first year of "firsts" is tough but come month thirteen ... it gets better!Ms. Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06093843256246047245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3662336582303073160.post-51980889357623997392009-01-12T00:55:00.000-06:002009-01-12T00:55:00.000-06:00Hi Jessica.

I too tend to watch my feeder and tonight I clicked on a link on my Feedjit and you were one of the blogs it pulled up. Happy New Year.Nancy Wyatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06276341072077586248noreply@blogger.com
