Well cuties, we had my Sister in laws memorial on Saturday. Long and tiring day but the weather was sunny, a light breeze with a chill but better than we have had for a while. I have tried at least a half dozen times to call her since she has passed, I know this will change. Thank you again for all the kind words and prayers. God Bless. Tonya aka stork

Tonya, I would have my phone in hand, ready to call and tell her (my sister in law) something and it would hit me again. She isn’t here anymore. I thought if I told anyone they’d think I was crazy. So it does happen. Time has a way of helping us heal. It will get better but everyday things will still make you remember her. ❤️Toogie

For a long, long time after my mother died I would think at 6pm that it was time to phone her. We had spoken at this time for years. If the thought happens now 12 years on I remember that she is now more but at peace. Tonya I am sure that you will continue trying to call your sister in law. Keep taking care.

I have a picture of my sister placed in my car to remind me she has passed away. I often would call another sister to see today was a good day or not to call. It hurts my heart every time I see her picture. It is the picture placed in the newspaper for her funeral.
I believe they are not far from us. That helps the hurt but still brings tears.

I think your wanting to call your SIL is a testimony to the love you 2 shared. It takes time to change habits we have had for years, especially when we don't want to have make the change. Please remember the good memories and be kind to yourself. And don't hesitate to turn to your Cutie family when you need us.

You are not the only one who does things like that.
My husband died two months ago. It takes quite a lot of paperwork and e-mails to get the banks happy. And several times I turned to where he used to sit and asked him 'Where did you put such and so'.
I answered a question asked by one of my children, 'I don't know, you'll have to ask dad'.
And once when the telephone rang and my hands were wet I shouted: Do you take it?
I am glad it's not just me. And it is getting less frequent.
