Here I Sit

Monday, May 14, 2012

Well here I sit. I feel like I'm at a stall point. My sister's death affected me more than I thought it would. It really makes you think of your own mortality. The last week I put everything in my life on hold. Thur. I went to the zoo. I can do a lot of thinking there. I love the animals and I love my Photography. Sat at the lion exhibit for a while just thinking. They are so majestic. I just relax there. I need to get back to my daily exercise and journaling my food. It's very hard to get the momentum back. I am getting it going the best I can right now.
I have to go back to Medford Or. on June 9th. My niece decided to have a memorial service that day so more relatives can come. Not looking forward to that. I'm going to try to not think about it too much.
So Here I go again.

How could this not make you feel good.

    I love the pictures and I love the zoo too. The animals are fantastic and they really calm me - other than the snakes. LOL.

Take whatever time you need to grieve and don't feel guilty about it. It's part of the healing process. You have suffered a major loss.

    Spectacular photos, thanks for sharing. I, too, suffered a death (around Christmas) that affected me a lot more than I thought it would. Coupled with a health scare of my own in the fall (fortunately it turned out to be a false alarm) I got bogged down in feeling old and getting depressed. If you find the same happening to you, I strongly recommend talking to you doctor.

    So beautiful.

Just keep putting one foot in front of the other. You owe to yourself and the rest of your family to give yourself the very best care.
