Sleep hit me up and I was thrilled. I needed it and though it was short-lived, sleeping for nearly 8 hours these past few nights has restored me a tiny bit. Hurrah!
As for my reading, I'm still making my way through the new Dan Brown. I normally gobble up Brown's books, but I'm taking my time with this one. And, I keep picturing Tom Hanks as Robert Langdon, which I don't like. I do like the films with Tom Hanks, but for some reason with the books not so much. LOL! I'm also reading Joel Osteen's, 31-Day wellness journey book titled: Happy, Healthy, and Free. Each day has a bible verse and then there is a little bit of writing about what it means. It seems to be hitting home with me lately, so I'm really getting a lot from it at the moment.
I still find myself crying suddenly over a memory or thought about my dad. So, I try to write it out and not let it take over. Grief is hard.
I've been watching a Hallmark Christmas movie every evening to cheer me up. They're fun and I love looking at Christmas, but I do find myself picking the movies apart and then wondering why I watch them.
Anyhow, I'm just trying to get through each day without falling apart lately. So, I try to do the little things to help myself, but it can be exhausting. Oh well, I just need to have faith that every day will get better and better, a little bit at a time.
Here's to a great week for us all. Happy reading!

Grief is hard. You never know when something is going to trigger it and bring up large emotions. My dad has been gone for seven years now, but there are still days when the grief feels overwhelming. I'm grateful to know I'll see him again someday though. That helps...a little. Hang in there!
