I love her and she knows that, but remembering the bad times devalue the rest of her life- the happy parts. <br /><br />Ohhellojo.blogspot.comJoanna.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00239709745748997441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773709208108297978.post-60928145510435985482015-02-05T12:43:34.971-06:002015-02-05T12:43:34.971-06:00Mid-February to April has been tough for my since ...Mid-February to April has been tough for my since my grandma passed away suddenly 3 years ago. I'm already starting to get the "feeling" of sadness, but I try to look at all the good I have to help me get through it; My husband was (and is) an amazing support when I'm feeling down and I have such an amazing little girl, it's hard to stay bummed for long, even when she's driving me batty.<br /><br />The biggest lesson I've learned when it comes to sadness is to try not to dwell on things for too long. By all means, throw yourself a pity party, but then get your act together and focus on everything that is good in your life.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17994353987380709169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773709208108297978.post-52934343174735755692015-02-05T09:20:24.173-06:002015-02-05T09:20:24.173-06:00I don't know.

He would have been 101 today!! Feb 4 is happy for us though - we always do something to celebrate him. He passed when i was 18. a "few" decades later, we all live to the fullest, happiest, and together (well not together -but for all holidays, weekends, etc) You are a different person and you appreciate them more than ever as time goes by.
