I am not in a good mood today, so I apologize in advance! May 14th would have been our 1 year anniversary, May 19th was one year since he passed away. I did very well that week, I think. Saturday was a perfect day, no tears, no sadness. I have been venturing out in the dating world again, and did have plans that evening to go downtown and watch some fireworks and hear some music for our city fest, so I'm sure that helped the mood. I did not want to sit around all day mopy and depressed, I am…See More

One year.....What if?

Posted on May 17, 2012 at 9:38pm 11 Comments

Tomorrow, May 18th, makes one year. One year since I have seen, touched, talked to, kissed, hugged, smiled at, laughed at, and enjoyed Tj. I kept focusing on the 19th because that is the date that he was pronounced dead. I, in my heart believe it was the 18th that he actually passed.

 

On May 18th I remember very well all the events of that day. We had just gotten married on the 14th and Tj was off work for the week because of it. That morning I woke up and got the kids ready,…

Last night for our one year anniversary, I went and got a tattoo to remember Tj by. I thought long and hard about what to get and what not. I wanted something that would remind me of him and our life together, but that would be personal enough that only people I tell would know what it stood for. I am very happy with the outcome. I got 6 birds on a line and one flying away from them to the sky. The one flying away, of course is Tj, and the 6 on the line are Myself, My 4 children, and my step…

Our first anniversary of marriage, although most of the first year I have been a widow

I remember the day I met Tj. It was a Friday, I went to our mutual friends house. I pulled in the driveway and saw him working on his raggedy old truck. I remember laughing to myself, thinking what the heck is that guy wearing? (his white wife beater ) Joseph introduced us and I remember just blowing him off, and going on about my business. We all three got ready and went to Marbury’s first football game of the season. As we were walking into the stadium, Tj looked at my with his big smile…
