It must be the little moments that are difficult, going for a walk and not having someone to point out the things you see - a pretty wild flower in the verges, or interesting clouds overhead. <br />Leaving loved ones suddenly and unexpectedly is a trauma for those left behind, it was the same with my mother - my father never really came to terms with her loss.<br />You have shown that you are stronger than you think and hopefully the housing situation will resolve itself soon especially now the sun is shinning - I hope so♡Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814070177137076757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6405235946922980965.post-33960318445352488892015-06-03T21:45:07.342-04:002015-06-03T21:45:07.342-04:00Hi Candice....

I'm about to sack my realtor too. I've reduced the price $20,000 already and want it sold asap. It is very stressful waiting for it to sell. I even planted one of those St. Joseph statues upside down in the garden last week. That's had bad it has gotten.
