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 - #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 ...
