Yesterday was the day. The day we put a family friend in the ground, way too soon. This one has hurt probably more than most of the other funerals I've been to. I think it's because she was so young and she was leaving behind her...

Sissy15 I've heard the same. I've heard birds are another good sign at funerals or after the loss of a loved one. What's interesting is before the funeral I was just thinking man wouldn't it be a great sign if a butterfly or a bird showed up today? Then it happened...

Sissy15 Thank you, the butterfly made us all smile. It just made the moment a little more comforting and slightly less sad. Burying someone you care about is never easy and I feel like these moments have a way of sticking with you throughout your life. Her funeral...

Sissy15 I try to make them all but I don't think anyone enjoys going to them. They're difficult. It's never easy burying someone you care about. I never attended any of my grandparents funerals. The first two my parents chose to not let me attend because they were...

Sissy15 @kaylachan I agree, some people like to be alone and some people need distraction so they need other people to talk to. We all deal with it differently.

Sissy15 Thanks, it is rough. I feel so bad for her boys and her mom and brother. My friend's husband told me he was just trying to stay busy since finding out and that makes sense.

Talking about Cary Grant got me thinking about my own childhood trauma. I want to preface this by saying I had an amazing childhood with loving parents, but just like anyone else, my parents were flawed. I feel like you can't...

Sissy15 @LadyDuck No one does everything right because we are all human, but understanding that makes it easier to forgive their mistakes.

After the news of my friend's sister, a lot of the people I know, myself and husband included, are all grieving and I have to say everyone grieves differently. I debated making some profound post about her, but I don't feel like...

Sissy15 @JudyEv I feel like it's a mix. I won't throw him under the bus because I didn't know him. I think people just want more answers because if there is any truth in what's being said you want to know that it's being looked into. I never thought he killed her but...

Sissy15 Thank you, my dad was a great man but a flawed one and part of growing up is realizing that two things can be true. You can be both a good person and also hurt others. Being a parent has also taught me understanding that I may not have had otherwise. As long...

Sissy15 I agree. I love my dad flaws and all. I had it great compared to some people. My dad was present and made time for us and I will always be grateful for that.

Sissy15 He did. He's human and flawed and I forgive him. I know he tried and I know he did the best he knew how. I still think he's a pretty good father.

Sissy15 I think kids are incredibly resilient but I also think this is also a hurt that won't go away but with time will become something more manageable. I hope their dad isn't abusive to them. I hurt for them. It still boggles my mind that she would do this knowing...

Sissy15 I could never throw away pictures. I feel like they're a time capsule to the past. As someone who does genealogy I find pictures helpful. Even if you don't know the people the pictures give you a look into that time period. Maybe find someone who would want...

Last night I learned of the death of my best friend's sister. It hits hard. They believe it was suicide, and I don't have many details beyond that, nor would I ask. The thing about suicide is you seldom see it coming. They seem...

Sissy15 That is sad. My step nephew died in a similar way when he was only 20 and that was a super difficult funeral for me. I'm not sure how much friends sister died exactly only that it was ruled a suicide and I recently learned her boys didn't find her thankfully....

Sissy15 It is. I was glad to hear it wasn't her boys that found her. Her husband found her in the shed in the back of her house. The more I'm learning about this the more I'm questioning things and stuff has really been bothering me about it. She loved those boys so...

Sissy15 Thanks, I've been feeling pretty emotional off and on since I heard so I can only imagine what her family is going through I feel so bad for my friend and now it's just him and his mom. I think it's so easy to miss signs and we clearly all missed them. I still...

When I was in high school, I decided to go to a vocational high school. This school was an old military base (or so I heard) and it was an interesting school. There are all kinds of stories about that place. They have since...

Sissy15 @id_peace That's part of why I chose to go to the school. I left behind a lot of friends and started over but it was one of the best decisions I could have made for myself.

Sissy15 He hasn't completely decided yet but is leaning towards it. I told him he had to do what was best for him. Hopefully if he does go he enjoys it.
