I've been strong natured, somewhat aggressive where I needed to be, but this what happened--it's exacting pieces here and there.

I read several blogs and I'm acting like it all describes.

Funny too, one place someone mentioned people show up at first when it happens, then dwindle. Is what's happening now. I'm not offended, and try to give all a pass with being busy with their families and being out of town for various reasons.

I've gotten consolation at the grocery store, the post office, the dry cleaners, and from my golden neighbors.

The peace that passes understanding come upon you and yours.
