Dear Ted #10

Oh my good hell, honey bunny, I'm stressed now.  I'm having so much anxiety today I can't even get up off the couch.  So depressed today.  I don't even know how to start this day.

I'm still having trouble coming to terms with the fact that you are gone.  I just keep thinking you'll walk through the door at any minute.  It feels like it was just yesterday that you left, but it seems like years ago.  I am having a real rough time even coming to grips with the reality of it.

On a positive note, my shingles are getting better.

The phone rang with the first bill collector for you.  I don't even know where to start with all of this.  So, I'm just going to wait until you start getting notices and send copies of your death certificate, I guess.  I don't know what else to do.  But, I think that is what caused my anxiety today.  I have no idea how they are going to respond.  Steve has me so worked up over all of this.  So, I'm just afraid of losing everything over what you owe.  I don't want that to sound as bitchy as it does, but damn it, I have no clue how to deal with this.  All I wanted was to make it through the first of the year.  Now I'm going to start getting inundated with calls. 

I can't believe that in four days, you'll be gone a month.  And I'm still not accepting that fact.  I keep expecting you to walk up the stairs.  I keep expecting you to wrap me in that big hug that you used to give me.  You gave the very best hugs!!  DAMN IT!!!  Why did you leave me??

This was in my memories today on Facebook.  Brought back a lot of
happy memories for me.  You were an amazing man.

Dear Ted - #56 - Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday my love!!  I hope you had a wonderful, heavenly birthday.  Doing whatever you wanted to do.   I made it through today ok.  I lazed in bed, not wanting to get out and face the day, for quite some time.  Then I got up.  By the afternoon, I was kind of in a groove.  But, when it came to the evening, I had a really hard time facing being by myself - staying in quarantine.  I was already out.  KayeLynn has to do all the shopping, because I'm not supposed to leave the house.  She was kind of wiped out when it was done, so she asked if I would make your cake.  So - I made the cake and then later made the biscuits and put dinner together.   You see, we had a full on, virtual type dinner.  All in your honor.  Susan thought of it and put it together.  It was all based on a dream she had with you in it.  She dreamt that we had been to visit and we left a box there.  The box was full of Red...

Dear Ted #24

So I've decided to give a new name to a certain day of the week.  I will now be calling it Productive Tuesdays.  I'm giving myself a goal to accomplish on that day and doing everything I can to meet that goal.  This Tuesday, I worked on our bathroom and our bedroom.  I finished up most of the painting, there is the other side of the beam that I still need to do, but it doesn't show - so I'm not too worried.  😂😂  Went through your nightstand drawers.  A lot of the stuff in there made me smile.   I also started painting our closet.   I'm doing the same colors as the bathroom.  I made a nice little shrine to you on your nightstand.  Got a picture of you in front of the flags from when we were at the Missouri.  I have your NSA mug with a bunch of little tools in it.  Your Jeeps.  Your Marine beanie and your Get Smart beanie.  One of your floppy hats. Your one Marine hat is hanging above the night stan...

Dear Ted #63 - Happy New Year

Well, yesterday was New Years Day. I just want you to know I had a great day!!! And it was all in honor of you!!! Because we couldn't have your birthday party in November - you know, I was quarantined - we had it yesterday. We went and had an effing burger in your honor. I have to say that I was not impressed with Habit Burger. I don't think I'll go there again. Then we rented out one of the Cinemark Theatres in Farmington. We watched the new Croods movie. It was pretty danged cute. But the best part, the kids could just do what they want. Especially my little Stinka. She ran around, stopped by everyone and took their treats. And whenever the sloth said DUN DUN DUN, so would she. We had a dance party at the end while the credits rolled. I have to say, it was the best day I've had since you left me. Maybe it was not our traditional movie marathon, but it made me very happy. I love you so much and your tradition lives on. This year, it was a little ...
