@theloriconway: Do you ever have a pity party? 😩 I am GUILTY as charged 🙋🏻♀️ It’s no wonder I reached for this mug to make my coffee this morning… even though, if I’m being honest, I almost didn’t. After the storms last night and all the tornado warnings, the chaos, the unknown 😔 I found myself sitting in it all, feeling the weight of not having Quintin here… my protector. And if I’m being real, I felt vulnerable. I felt alone. But there it was… this morning after the storm this simple mug. A quiet reminder that God’s provision, His protection, and His presence are still with me, even in the hard, uncomfortable seasons. If you’re feeling it too… let my vulnerability remind you: there is no shame in what you’re feeling. No guilt in the weight you’re carrying. But also know this… those thoughts telling you you’re alone, stuck, or not enough? They’re not truth. They’re lies from the enemy. No matter what your circumstances look like right now, God sees you. He’s with you. And He is making a way, even when you can’t see one yet. If you can relate please drop “ME” below ⬇️ so I can say I see you in all the work you are doing!! You are NOT Alone!! Looking for window resources? Comment “WIDOW” I would love to connect you with a community for healing. #crazybusymama #widowmomlife #griefandgrowth

I can relate but I try to think about how proud my husband must be of me! I’ve managed to keep myself in the same house we bought from his parents. He passed 11 years ago. It seems like yesterday and some days it feels like it’s been forever! It’s okay to feel what we feel! I’m glad you are expressing yourself and your vulnerability! Grief is definitely a roller coaster and it’s a ride I didn’t expect or want to be on. I live in Wichita Kansas so we had storms last night too. Ironically I slept through it! Keep doing what you’ve been doing. You’re going to get through it and be stronger.

I know exactly what you mean! I lost my husband 2 years ago but my children are grown but it is so hard to be alone making any decision. I am 77 years and was married 58 years. I was 17 years old when we married. God has a purpose for us both leaving us here for now . This is not our final home . I know you know this and it is so hard.Hang in there! It will not stay this way! We will go to our heavenly home we our mission is complete so we must continue on our journey for now.

I can totally relate. I am in the same shoes. I have had a ton of anxiety attacks. I sat and cried so mad that my husband left me feeling so scared. my late husband was my security. you are not alone...but I feel alone. I too am tired of making all the decisions on my by myself. it had been almost 3 years in June for my husband, and I lost my dad 3 months before.... it doesn't feel like it is getting easier. it is nice to know that I am not alone. Thank yoy for posting this. I don't feel so crazy

I hear you. I don’t like paying bills. When I don’t pay attention the penalties hit. When I make mistakes I panic and go blank.

I can only imagine how exhausting it all would be! I'm glad you were safe from the storm. It's ok to have a moment for a pity party. You just can't stay there. Quentin would be really proud of how you are carrying on.
Someone walked right into your house???? 😲

Absolutely correct! Having to make decisions alone and not having the covering of a spouse makes you so vulnerable! BUT God is always with us!

I always cry with you! I lost my forever love one year and 27 days ago. I’m still so, so sad even after an ok day. I think that we get overwhelmed so frequently. I have so much anxiety about the first time things happen when I’m on my own. I have pity parties as well….hang in, you got this and you are not alone!!!
