Jenn replied to Robinmo's discussion Is the second year really worse?
"The best thing about the first year is that I barely remember it. from a grief perspective that is great. unfortunately the cost is that I barely remember my baby's first steps, teeth, etc. and I did write it down..... somewhere..... ha ha

Thank you, Jenn! Miss you, been crazy busy! Do you like my silly new welcome badge? (We'll need a "welcome back" one, too, no?) XXOXOXOXO
Jenn,
Thanks for friending me and noticing the Evanston connection! Are you an American living abroad? I grew up in Canada, but came to this town for college and never left. I met my husband when I was 29. He died when I was 44, five years ago. It's a long slog through grief...I am feeling better these days, finally, more of the old self has returned. I find myself deeply appreciative for my life. I'd like to know your story.
It's now the 27th in Nederland.
Thinking of you Jenn xxx
her myself. so I'd rather just let him take care of it.
And I know, I thought "what a freaking Idiot!" when I saw it.
