Widows, replace your beloved spouse's name into the places where you see "Taylor". A fellow widow found this poem, based on the book “Saying Olin to Goodbye” by Donald Hackett. I know you will love this, share all you want.~*~*~*~ SAY Taylor ... The time of concern is over. No longer am I asked how I am doing. Never is the name of my partner mentioned to me. A curtain descends. The moment has passed. A life slips from frequent recall. There are exceptions … close and comforting friends,…See More

16 months ago I lost my best friend

Posted on July 24, 2011 at 3:20am 2 Comments

July 23rd makes 16 months since I have lost Taylor! I still can't believe he is gone. I miss his smile, his laugh, his smell, his touch, and the love he gave me that I had never felt before! It still feels as if he should be walking in at ANY minute! My world has been changed so much. I am still trying to find the new me, my new normal! A place I still would do anything to trade not to be in!



I feel so blessed to have so many new friends in my life! I have much more support than I… Continue

Please Help Me Get To Camp Widow

Posted on July 3, 2011 at 3:02am 1 Comment

As all of you know, my life changed forever on March 23, 2010. My husband who was 32 of almost 10 years died tragically in a wreck one night on his way to deliver a load. My girls and I are doing our best to make a "new" life, and that is the hardest thing I have had to do in my life.



15 months out, and I still can't believe this is my life! I still can't believe all the hopes, dreams and our future was ripped away in an instant. I hurt so much for all I and he will miss together, and… Continue

I don't have many dreams about my husband, and the ones that I have had in the past, were dreams of things we had done before or weird ones that didn't really make sense.

I have a friend of mine that said her husband came to her in her dreams, and told her he was ok, at peace and he loved her and how great of a mom she was, and that it was ok to move on. She said it brought her so much peace and that even though it wasn't ALL better...somehow she felt a sense of relief.  That was…

Hi, Thank-you for your friend invite. I'm so sorry about your husband.

Your "How Can You Help Me" is exactly what I wish everyone knew.

Hi...thanks for your friend request.  I notice on some of your pictures you do digital scrapbooking too.  I started in 2009 and was loving it.  Unfortunatley I haven't been able to get back into it since April last year :(  I did a couple but my enthusiasm was just gone.  Anyway will try again and may be able to get some advice from you.  I was teaching my self Photoshop and was only on number 3 LOL so a real novice.  I have now upgrade to 7.  Although I think todays current version is 9 or CS or something.  I need to start retraining myself.  Hope we can chat sometime.  I have popped in and out but never really shared yet.  Still a newbie I suppose only been around just over a month.

Amanda - that song you posted in the chat room was beautiful. I've never heard it before. What a wonderful gift from your young friend.

Oh Taylor, what a beautiful page and pictures ...what a tribute to Taylor, his memories and your girls.  Stay strong, thats all we can do and when you need to cry, cry.  I had a lot of tears and sure are more for my Danny.
