Deep Breath. I stayed by myself all day. I found some of my precious things that were packed during my move from my daughter’s home. I put them around the room. It looks more like “I” live here now. Everything of my almost ex husband’s that was in this room is now packed. I did have a wonderful conversation on the phone with my alternative health care provider. We talked more about doing this work and being careful to watch for depression. Both he and my therapist are happy I am willing to do this deep work. Happy is not a word I’d use. Essential is the word for me. I don’t think I have a choice.
