(For those of you who are just stopping by after a weekend away from blogland, please read here first)
There are no words I can use to convey our appreciation for everyone’s support & amazing words. The fact that so many are praying for us and keeping is your thoughts is beyond what we could have ever asked for. Let me say, it’s working – we are making it though this one minute at a time.
This past weekend has felt like four months worth of time, emotion and food. As a priorfatgirl, I am being put to the test. Saturday and Sunday I ate. I ate to numb the pain. Donuts. Cookies. Macaroni & Cheese. Banana’s. Sandwiches. Chips. Oh, and oreo’s. Carlos helped me stop at the grocery store to buy oreo’s. I ate a few oreo’s in honor of my mom. Anything that I would walk past. Grazing. Nibbling. Inhaling. Whatever.
I do not feel guilt. Grief, it does a funny thing to our stomach. For some, grief fills their stomach and they do not feel the need to eat. For others, grief leaves a void in the stomach a pain so much like that of hunger. For me, quite obviously, it is the latter. So many things I could share with you about what has happened yet would take millions of words to describe. So many emotions are in my head but I feel like a zombie. One minute I am fine and the next minute I am sobbing uncontrollably. 
The service is tomorrow and will be followed by a walk. A walk in honor of my mom because she was not able to finish hers. The walk will end with a prayer and ice cream with what else but oreo’s.
For those of you who are local, you are more then welcome to join us for this walk. My mom would love to meet all of you. (Walk info is in the two news links below)
From the bottom of my heart, from the bottom of my families heart, thank you all for continuing to keep us in your prayers. I leave you with a few links
I know I have missed other blog post’s regarding my mom. If you are the author and are willing to share, please send me the link. I know you understand, I am so behind on my blog reading and hope everyone is doing well.
