I am so tired of being a widow. It’s really depressing and I don’t like being sad all the time. I have to remember that before this happened, I often looked forward to being alone, that I treasured the time I spent with just myself, that I valued my privacy maybe sometimes too much. Haven’t I always bragged about having a room of my own, a space that is just for me, where even Steve had to be invited in.
So from now on I am going to consider myself a single woman who was lucky enough to have been married for 41 years to an always interesting, often challenging but always loving man. For 41 years as a married woman, I led an extraordinarily full and rich life with that man. Now I have to make a full and rich life for myself.
I know I can do it. As Steve always said, “A busy person is a happy person. I intend to keep busy.

I'm thinking that whatever is most comfortable for you to get through this period is what you need to do. Good Luck with the transition....and yes, keep busy definitely.
