Today, I began to make changes in my bedroom. Actually, it started two weeks ago, when I asked my friend, Carrie, who was going to be staying at my home while I traveled, to help move the old dresser from my bedroom to the guest room. She said she would do it while I was gone.
So, I came home to that one change already apparent in my room. Today, I vacuumed and dusted and moved the other bookcase next to its matching bookcase (where the dresser had been) and then moved the CD rack to where the bookcase had been. I made a place for Roxie where the CD rack had been. I then dusted other pieces of furniture, put away wash, stored winter items, found the toy bag and put the few pieces I had into it, and started filing. I also played a Celine Dion CD which used to put me into tears with enjoyment and peace. And, I chose a pair of winter wet boots of Ed’s to donate. I like the changes that I have made and the music I am listening to now.
I still miss him. Yet I am beginning to feel less in grief, at least most of the time.
