Today my brother brought over three boxes of stuff from Mom's house that he thought I should have, including stacks of these "day by day" journals she started keeping after dad died.
I knew I wasn't ready for this but I opened one from 2007 anyway.
Big mistake.
One day I'll be glad I have these. Right now is too soon.
Whew. I thought I was doing ok.
Just keep swimming...
When cleaning out my father's stuff after moving him to a retirement apartment (short lived), I found a bunch of very personal (and not always so nice) stuff from when my mom and dad divorced. I read just a tiny bit, stopped, and destroyed it. None of my business!!
ReplyDeleteI suggest you do the same...
