Widow friend,
One of the cruelest parts of widowhood is that life keeps moving.
The mower breaks.
The oil needs changed in the vehicle.
The paperwork piles up.
The kids depend on you. Everyone still depends on you.
The decisions never stop.
And you’re still carrying grief in every part of your body.
So if you’re tired today, I understand.
Let’s rest too. ❤️
You will survive, but you will become someone else.
Today marks 5 months without Bill.
Yesterday, I stood and watched more of his things leave his garage… the place he waited his whole life to build. That hurt in a way I can’t even explain.
Today, I cleaned out his storage unit.
And the truth is… I’m nowhere near done with the death duties. The paperwork. The clean outs. The decisions. The constant moments that feel like losing pieces of him all over again.
Of course these things are changing me.
Grief doesn’t just take the person you loved. It changes the person left standing too.
The version of me before January 10th doesn’t exist anymore.
She was lighter. Less guarded. Less aware of how quickly life can change.
Now I move differently.
I protect my peace quicker. I love harder. I say what I mean. I don’t waste time pretending things don’t hurt.
Some days I miss the old me almost as much as I miss him.
But this version of me survived watching her whole world change in a single moment… and somehow still gets up and keeps going.
Not unchanged.
Not untouched.
But still here. ❤️
Bend, and snap! 😘

As I step into June, I step into month five of being a widow.
Five months without Bill has taught me more than I ever wanted to learn.
I’ve definitely found myself in the anger stage of grief. At least now I can recognize it when it shows up. I know when it’s taking over, and I’ve learned to be honest about it. Sometimes I need people. Sometimes I need space. And I’ve learned not to feel guilty for either.
People say you can’t outwork your grief, and they’re right. But for me, working through the anger matters. Whether it’s in the gym, at work, at home working around the house, or pouring myself into my boys, I need somewhere for that anger to go. Carrying it around isn’t an option.
I’ve also learned that love is vital right now.
Love didn’t leave when Bill did.
The love I have for him is still here. The love I have for my boys is stronger than ever. The love God continues to place in my life keeps me moving forward.
And I’ve learned something else that surprised me: allowing myself to receive love doesn’t take away from the love I had with Bill. It doesn’t diminish it. It doesn’t replace it. It simply helps keep me grounded when the waves get high, steady when my footing feels unsure, and reminds me there are still reasons to keep living, not just surviving.
I miss my husband every single day.
But I’m learning that grief and love aren’t enemies. Sometimes they walk hand in hand.
And somehow, that’s what’s carrying me through month five. ❤️
Some battles don’t need conversation.
They need faith, courage, and action.
Stop fearing what God already told you to fight. He already knows the end results. 🔥
🪨💪🏼
I choose the second option. My circumstance will never inhibit what’s available to my children. ❤️❤️❤️
So let them talk, the only thing that will change for us will be my hustle. 💪🏼
