Getting Back

Gentle Friends I wanted to thank you all so much for your kind comments and condolences.  I am getting back to things - I have 100's of emails that I know will take quite a while for me to answer.

The last couple of weeks were a roller coaster of feelings and emotions.

Since I haven't picked up a needle since 11/17 I really have nothing in that department to show....  but I will be back at some point.

Thanks again, and Take care,
edgar

  17. Edgar,

    Hang in there! I was in the same situation nearly a year ago when my father died. I didn't stitch for two months or so, and much to my surprise, and horror, after so long I didn't even miss it. That worried me. I had to force myself to get back in the stitching groove. I just did a little at a time, and now I'm back to my old stitching self. It took me longer to get back into designing, but I think I'm finally there. Hang in there....

  18. Edgar - there is no schedule or imposed time limit for grief, nor should there be. Thinking of you.

  19. I am so sorry to hear about your Mom, Edgar. It's never easy, but this is a harder time of year, I think, to loose someone you love so very much. I miss my Dad every day and it's been quite a few years.

    In my prayers for some peace to your and your loved ones' hearts.

  20. I have thought of you often during this time, wondering how you are faring. I lost my mom when I was in college, so I understand the heartbreak you are going through. I know there is a big mom-shaped hole in your heart right now. Hugs.

  26. Edgar, I am glad to see you back. I know how hard it is to lose a parent. It took me awhile to get my life back on track and even to this day, I still have grieving periods. Hang in there, take care of yourself and let it all run it's course. You are in my thoughts.

  27. I have read your blog and commented maybe a few times, but I feel like I need to tell you that you are not alone. My father passed away very quickly as well on October 24. I know how it feels right now, and I just don't know what else to say other than it's such a weird feeling. If you want to vent, I am here.
