Much as I admit that it is my kids keeping me here, it is also a huge challenge to parent alone ... not shared.<br /> Father's Day in Australia is not until September ... otherwise I don't think I'd be crawling out of the funk yet.... All those anniversary dates just drag me down and only seem to remind me of what isn't that SHOULD be.

Much as I need this reminder from Michele and others myself, I say to you that it does get better (or at least more bearable).

The trees in his garden stand alone at night looking in the bedroom window thinking someone should give them a drink. I guess that must be me, but all my water goes into tears that continually wash the blush from my face I wear to make me look happy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1268746983441346507.post-80950722954471332692012-06-19T19:51:34.807-07:002012-06-19T19:51:34.807-07:00Love the post.

I pine for more empathy and understanding from friends and family but just don't seem to get it. So I have turned inward looking for inspiration and have found it through my garden, exercising, and creative new projects in my house. Guess I will need to investigate Pininterest!<br /><br />Sending you hugs of gratitude for your writings and keeping me inspired!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
