OVERWHELMED

I'm overwhelmed with so many emotions....I decided I need to get it out of my head.

I'm overwhelmed with sadness and gratitude. During this horrible month my emotions have changed at the drop of a hat. Thru the sadness I am overjoyed with gratitude that so many people care. Seeing the hundreds of people that came to the funeral home, the funeral and the luncheon showed me how many lives Holly touched and how well loved she is.
And the generosity everyone is showing just amazes me. The flowers, food and money for her children's trust fund make my heart swell.

Along with losing my beautiful niece I'm losing my faithful Barq's. I think it's time to let him go, but how do I really know? My decision changes evey day! It's harder as each day passes. Am I keeping him around for me? Is he happy? Is he hurting? Life is so hard sometimes.

Hopefully getting thoughts out of my brain will help me deal.

~~~~sigh~~~~ thanks for listening.

Oh Jayne this has been such a hard summer for you. {{HUGS}} on all of it and I don't envy the decision you have to make. Go with your heart and what Barqs tells you.

Big hugs to you and Barqs. Like Jeanne says, he will let you know when it's time to let him go. Until then, just give him lots of love!
