In fact, I find you very interesting and positive.<br />Being alone and trying to find ones way is frustrating and sometimes scary. So write away about the past or present. Frustrating stuff or not.

It's real life and the good people in it that interest me. In other words, YOU are interesting! <br /><br />Sometimes when I'm sitting around thinking about a fun memory, I'll blog about it so I can remember it in the future...like a journal where everyone has access to your thoughts. (Sounds scary, doesn't it??) lol<br /><br />Not really. You jot down only what you want anyone to read and that's it. The good times you shared with your husband are always a good read and like the others have said, we get it because we can relate to it in one way or another. I encourage you to keep writing. :)Scarlethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17560614073319109150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-807352795883538836.post-13232959381206234362009-06-13T11:38:14.736-05:002009-06-13T11:38:14.736-05:00Dear Marla ~ I don't think of you as a negativ...Dear Marla ~ I don't think of you as a negative person either.

Funny thing that the things you speak about we can ALL relate to. We have all lost someone we were close to, and your stories of your husband spark our own memories. Please continue to share YOUR life with him. It has not gone away. It just needs to be written down.<br /><br />Your are the most wonderful grandmother in the world, for sure.

Actually you are a help to me. I always say that I am a loner but I suppose that isn't so. I sure do mention Mrs. Jim a lot. And I was busted up when the first Mrs. Jim decided she would opt for greener grass. So.<br />And I'm with Lanny, I never did think of you as a negative person either. Not from your writing. I do know that you are down quite a bit but who wouldn't be after losing their lifelong mate?<br />So. Again. This time, I will accompany it with a good old "HANG IN THERE!!" And really I know you will. <br /> <br />:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)<br />:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)<br />:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)<br />:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)<br />:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)<br />:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)<br />:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)<br />:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)<br />:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)<br />:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)<br />:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)<br /><br />That was my little HAPPY SONG.
