Good afternoon Ladies!
I was lucky that my daughter was still living at home when I lost my husband. I really did not want to be alone at that time. She told me she wasn't crazy about being alone then either, so we moved to a smaller place, but stayed together, for moral support and financial reasons.
She's engaged now and getting married in December of 2007 and I'm about ready to move out on my own. I feel stronger now emotionally, just need to start making enough money to be independent financially. It's going to be strange living alone. I've never been out on my own before. I went straight from my parents home into marriage. It's scary, but exciting too, in a way. I'm actually starting to look forward to being in my own place, just me, with no one to answer to about anything. Anyway, everyone has to handle this single living thing in their own way and in their own time, just like grieving.
