Tuesday and I just realized I am supposed to vote today!! I don't even know where my polling place is ... one more thing to do. We packed up all of FIL's clothing and took it to Goodwill yesterday. We also threw out a bunch of junk. Hidden among some of what looked like junk were a few treasures. A portrait my FIL had done of my MIL by an artist in Japan in 1952 when he was overseas in the Air Force by a Japanese artist from a photograph of Helen, an antique nurse's watch FIL gave to MIL when she graduated nursing school, two paintings on round saw blades, some unfinished paintings, a yearbook from his high school, and a little container my FIL engraved in 1954. The paintings he had done that were hanging up are not there. None of his jewelry, his wedding band to Helen, his watch, engraved cuff links he did for his father ... all missing. All of his Bible study books (and he had an extensive library) were there. All of his painting supplies were there and a rocking chair he bought for Helen. So, we do have a few momentos.
Emotions are deep and strong right now. I am doing my best to walk side-by-side with my husband through this process. We have a little more packing to do at the apartment and then we'll be done with that piece. It's been a challenge, as my supervisor is gone until Thursday and we had an intern from the University of Idaho start yesterday. There is no one except me to orient her and get her started and at the same time I need to be with my husband. I'm doing the best I can under the circumstances. I also have paperwork and data entry deadlines I need to make this week so hopefully Wednesday and Thursday I can focus on that.
I did well eating yesterday. I am sleeping poorly. I hope to eat well again today. I am not weighing right now. I will on Friday or Saturday. I hope I haven't gone up but after Taco Bell and Dairy Queen on Sunday ... who knows.
Take care of yourselves and I'll continue to do my best to take care of me!!!

What the heck are they going to do with HIS wedding ring to another woman?! I mean, thats just wrong - I'd have something to say to them about that one. Other than my issues with it... you seem to be handling it all very well - I'm proud of you. Sorry you pretty much all alone at work right now - so am I, and it sucks. Try to take a break and just sit and relax for a bit durring this time. Your in my thoughts! HUGS!!!

I'm glad you were able to find a few mementos that your fake MIL's family didn't take. You are handling it so well; I would be absolutely furious!!! But those kind of feelings aren't healthy so I'm glad you are focusing on the positive. :)

Oh trust me ... fury has flown around here!!! However, we have to move on and I don't want to have our lives overwrought with the negativity of that horrid family. They are a lying, stealing, thieving bunch of people who pretend to be 'christian' and I loose that term very loosely. It would likely do no good to talk to them about the things we would like. But, FIL's brother does have some papers of fake MIL's that he is going to try to use a leverage ... we'll see how that works out. Sarah ... it is wrong. Very wrong. They are shameless.

You are going through so much rught now with emotions running high. I am sorry that this has happened with your FIL belongings. It is very sad. I know it is tough for you to be going into work when you want to be supportive for your husband. You Carol are one tough cookie. I am hoping you get things straightened out without too much more drama for you. I am praying for a good end for you and the strength to do the rest of the things you have to do. Much love and huggs to you and your family.

I can SO relate to that situation though Carol. My uncle pulled virtually the same manuever when my grandma died and my mother got nothing-- not even photobooks which is what she really wanted. Why are some people so selfish/greedy??? Just be glad you are better than that.

We just finished moving everything out of FIL's apartment. That is good. It was really hard for my husband to be there. Very sad. So, one thing is complete. I really do not understand why some people are so selfish and greedy. It dumbfounds me.

Oh my, what a difficult situation. Although it seems fitting based on what you've said about Fake MIL and her family. I am sorry you have to deal with one more mess created by her but thankful that it's nearly over. You are doing wonderfully well!

The angels are always near to those who are grieving, to whisper to them that their loved ones are safe in the hand of God. I have not been in journals for a couple of days Moose. I am so very sorry for you and your husbands loss. My deepest sympathy and just know how much my heart goes out to you both. God bless.

I am sorry again for your loss, both emotionally and physically. I know this may sound weird but for someone to steal bible books of all things?? What are they thinking?? Ok, I am sorry...not very nice of me...it just struck me as strange...again, I wish you peace and tranquility during this difficult period. {{{{hugs]}}}

Dear Carol, eating well and getting enough sleep must sound so meaningless in front of the emotions you're living these days. However, they are the healthy base that will help you to go through all this stress. I'm so glad you said you ate well yesterday, I hope you can have a good night rest tonight. As far as the fake family is concerned, the sooner they disapear from your life, the better it is. I'm really shocked to read what they did. What a shame. (((hugs)))
