Betty, how far is Kitchener from Toronto/Mississauga?

I would say Kitchener is about an hour maybe 2 depending in traffic . Mississauga is a bit closer .flowerforyou

WOW.


I had an almost 3 yr relationship with a widower that I met online that lives in Mississauga. I was up there ALL the time. Just about every month-6 weeks I would come up. Loved it there!

Mornin everyone,
Ripped off, I just felt and still do sometimes, in a fluff..a bit numb. Sometimes things surface.I cry, I decided not to feel angry or bitter. I had plenty of that during at times. The year and a half afforded some healing before he passed. I had always wanted to feel beautiful from him..just before he passed, he told me, It was nice and really didn't matter as much then. In my writing, I share that in many ways..

Today, holiday that I am feeling weary of alone. People around me are doing, enjoying and my means for similar is limited. Sometimes it is those feelings that hurt. I lost much of what I had when he passed. I have struggled in all aspects of living to live as well as I can. I have encountered some very mean men. I am kind, tender and caring...a little ouchy today..

Let the tears begin..

I hear yor pain ..so sorry for your loss. Don,t feel alone , we all have a special bond here . I know is is not the same but I think we all understand and are here for you . Sometimes talking to strangers are easier than talking to family . Here we would never tell you to knock it off and get on with it . the way well meaning friends and family do.
Your writing is beautiful and has brought comfort to me as sometimes you expressed what I was feeling.
Good luck to you hun and here is a big hug from me to youflowerforyou flowerforyou

Sage,

Did you also post about the Gathering on the other boards? I thought that might be a good idea for non widowed persons to see it as well.

Yes, am bumping the original up in General, made a post in 50's & here. Figure that should pretty well cover w.o getting in trouble for posting samething in to many different threads.

#'s are low so hope more get on board.

Going to the gathering would be nice, but I know I can't make it. My finances are rather limited and a trip just doesn't fit into that budget. But, I hope more people will be able to go and have a great time.

I hate holidays, it always reminds me of the family life I thought I would have with my husband and son. I try to create holiday rituals that i think we would have shared, but the day usual ends in tears and it lost my husband 6 years ago.
