Time goes so fast, even when I'm not ready for it. There are days I just wish time would stop and allow me to catch up. Mike's memorial service/celebration of life is now less than 3 weeks away, and I have done almost nothing to prepare for it (emotionally or physically). I finally went and talked with the pastor and toured the church where we are holding the service, and I had a really good feeling about it. The church is perfect for our needs, and I know it would make Mike happy that I chose such a special place to say our last goodbyes.
This week has brought on so many emotions that I almost feel like I'm back in the first week of my grieving process. I'm teetering on the edge somewhere between "okay" and "seriously fucked up." One minute I'm happy and positive and hopeful, and the next I'm crying uncontrollably. I just need to hang on and get through this service, then I can start picking up the pieces and truly keep walking forward. Sure, I'll stumble when I see signs and reminders of Mike, but I have people there ready to take my hand when I need it. Jeramy, Jack and Austin, Dawn, my knitting friends, and my (and Mike's) family...thank you for always being there for me and never letting me fall. I'm going to rely on you all to continue allowing me to go through whatever it is I need to go through, and to take my hand when I falter. I'm so grateful that I had you all helping me through the first chapter and leading me into the next.
Hang on, the ride is going to be bumpy for a couple of weeks.
As a reminder to those waiting for details on the service. It is an open invitation to anyone who wants to come. It will be on Saturday, June 21, 2014, at 2 p.m. It is going to be at Calvary Chapel - Light of the World, 155 Bosque Farms Blvd Suite B - Bosque Farms, NM 87068. There will be refreshments served after the service.
