One task at a TIME!

                 A new day---  another very warm day--- to-day will be  busy--- ---

                                                                    --one task at a time--

The windows must be covered with kind of blind-or curtain----I have a Lady coming later on to measure the windows--City Hall tells me I must have permission to complete the fencing in the yard-- -but---I need a permit----------and show them a drawing----I will also eventually need a shed to attach onto this town house to store  outdoor tools in-

- It seems never ending--the work that needs to be completed , and before winter sets in--Life is hard righ now--very busy----  Do I miss my husband??--You bet I do!!




Oh I hope My husband  is walking beside me--Do you believe what  we are told?--I do hope so!!!

I must get stronger-- because --- it really does not get easier------
So, life goes on--and on--and each day we must get stronger--  at least I  hope we do--
                                                                             because-----

        it is tough trying to be strong----trying to have "standards"----
Sometimes one must talk to ones self--- like-----  "Just keep going"----- ""I CAN DO THIS!" -------but---  there really is  no alternative -------We do have STANDARDS to keep!-----



Below---- a blast from the past

  1. It's Kathy. Lynda, you are the strongest woman I know. Yes, I believe himself is with you every second of every day! He will help you to know what to do, I'm sure of it. I can't imagine how many decisions you have to make right now, but one day at a time and it will all come together! Have a wonderful day!

  2. Hi Lynda
    Yes, Fred is walking with you. You can do it. You'll get through whatever.
    Rather than adding to the house.....how about a Rubbermade type 2 door tool shed that's free standing
    I can't imagine you'll need that much stuff for outside storage. Just a thought. I'm hoping yard maintenance..mowing
    ..is included in your rent.
    Take care. One thing at a time
    So HOT in St.Louis still
    Hugs
    Marge

  3. Hi Lynda! It is hot in Ohio but rain tonight will cool it off. You have a lot going on but it will be so nice when you get done. Then, you can come to Medina and we will go for ice cream! Big hugs!

  4. Hi, Lynda. Hot here, too, in Central Ohio (Newark). 91, but I think I have a faulty sensor in the new car. It reads 100 out, LOL.

    Yeah, it'll all come together, just part of moving to a new place. Yes, an enclosed back yard will be nice, but I can't imagine you will need a very big shed for a tiny rental unit. You won't be doing much outdoors, I imagine. Surely YOU don't have to mow it all, do you? And salt, and shovel, and all that stuff that you used to have to do.

  5. Sorry there is so much to be completed. For sure, Fred is besides you and has faith in you. Just take any help you can get!

    Our Moms were indeed strong women and good examples of how to conduct ourselves.

    HUGS and blessings and take it one day @ a time

  6. This is Maggie, sis. I am on my Kindle. Took my pc in today for the hard drive. It may be a couple days. This is okay in a pinch, but harder.
    Hope your permit comes quickly.
    Love that meme about our loved ones always with us. Haven't you felt Fred with you? Dreamed about him, even smelled him, seen a bird or something he loved?
    They tried to do that test on my esophagus today, but both nostrils are blocked!
    Just got notice an order is ready for pick up. Back later. {{{HUGS}}} Love, Maggie

  7. Hi Lynda - The heat makes everything seem harder. I find it so easy to put things off. I know you are missing Fred as you set up your new home. He is in your heart, so every decision you make, every sunset you see, every tear you shed, he is sharing with you. All that love you shared together is still with you. I know it can feel so lonely. Hang in there. You are loved by your many friends and family members. Fred’s love will always be with you to help you carry on.

  9. What we learned while being in one another's presence stays with us. I can still talk to my mother (who's been gone 29 years already), and my brother (can you believe it's been six years?)... and feel their responses. But we do get those glimpses. Fred will be with you, the real Fred, the essence of Fred...
