Dear Ted #6

Today is overwhelming.   And when I say overwhelming, I mean OVERFUCKINGWHELMING!!!!

You've left me in a bit of a mess, my love.  I don't know what your debt is.  I don't know what anyone will come after me for.  I am barely able to make my own debt payments, let alone I need to figure out how to pay a mortgage now.  I really, honestly, keep wanting to just ignore anything and everything until after the first of the year.  Why can I not just live in a bubble for three or four more weeks???  Then I'll figure things out.

Steve was here.  He's got me even more worried.  I have no clue where to go or what to do.  He's talking about reverse mortgages and all that.  Well, I really don't want to do that.  I want to be able to leave something to the kids. 

I guess if nothing else, I'll drain my 401 from the city and pay off your debts.  I'm already planning to do that with mine, so I can continue to live.  WTF???  Why does this have to be so complicated.  We never wanted to join monies, we never felt we needed to.  Now I am not sure what the hell is going on and what I'm going to get stuck with.  GAH. 

I went to the doctor today.  I had to go to get my meds refilled.  I have shingles.  She says that's probably due to stress.  I guess it has to come out somewhere.  She is giving me an anti-depressant to take for a while, because of the anxiety I've been dealing with.  I'm truly at the end of my rope in how to deal with everything.  It's completely exhausting.  I just want to go to bed, cover my head and not deal with anything again. 

I wish I knew how to deal with things.  I told the doctor I couldn't cry anymore. That I just got anxious over everything.  She told me that was normal.  I was so glad to hear that, because I thought I was being a heartless bitch because I didn't cry anymore.  I guess I'm just normal. 

I sure wish you would give me a clue as to what to do.  I honestly just want to exist in a bit of a normal way.  Missing you.  But, not be overwhelmed by what the future holds.  I wish you could give me any idea of what to do.

Dear Ted - #71

Holy hell. It's almost been a year since I wrote to you. Ten months, actually!! WOW Just thought I would catch you up on a few things. February I took Harper to Disneyland. We had a great time. I love that kid. That was the last time I traveled. Crazy, I know. April, I had gastric bypass surgery. I decided the rest of my life should be as healthy as possible. However, I've been pretty weak since having it. I actually did ok until I had Covid in June. That nearly killed me. Not really, but I got so weak I couldn't walk for twenty feet without thinking I needed to sit down and relax. I'm still dealing with that. Rustie had her gallbladder out on Friday. On Monday, I will be picking up the three girls. They will be staying with me until Saturday. Then I'll be taking them to Russ and Nancy's - I think. On Saturday, KayeLynn and I are heading to Grand Junction. Randi and Iri moved to Delta, Colorado back in May. So, we are going to go see them...

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 - #70 - Two years

Well, it's been two years. I can't even believe it. I worked all day and kept my mind off things. Since being home, it's not as easy. I love you more than you'll ever know.
