Moving along...

I am making a little progress each day. There is so much to do after a person passes away. I have had a gazillion phone calls to make, VA forms to fill out, Thank You cards to write and mail, funds to move around, accounts to close, design a headstone/grave-marker...the list goes on and on. I do it all with a very heavy heart for the most part...but I have noticed that some relief comes out of it as well. I copied, faxed and mailed all the final VA papers today. It was a huge task and I am so glad to have it all done for the most part. I also finalized the design for Dad's headstone. I think it's pretty amazing and everyone will really like it. I have been off and on the phone all week with the Trooper that worked my Dad's accident/scene and also the Towing company that hauled Dad's truck away from the crash site. There are a few things missing that I have been hoping they could track down and return to us. One of them was Dad's glasses. The Tow Truck company found them yesterday and is mailing them to me! I was so glad he took the time to look for them. Some days are easier than others and I notice the kids are the same way.
We are having a service/gathering for Pat's Dad this weekend and the following weekend we will bury my Uncle Albert. Life is just really hard sometimes...it's amazing though, how we all come thru it in time. TIME is my friend right now...I need lots of TIME.
Thank you all for your continued love, support and prayers.

It is amazing how getting things done helps you heal at the same time....I found that to be true, also....once the healing starts, it comes more quickly each day...but do not be caught unaware...the hurt can barrel back down on you so quicky...it just seems to pass faster each time. And without even noticing...the hurt is over shadowed by precious memories and it does not hurt so much to remember them. Then...hard to believe...the hurt completely turns into "happy remembering" (at least that is what I call it)...glad you are on your way to this place.....
