  Today I only cried once but have not smiled as I've not seen anyone to smile at. My husband of 41yrs died 7weeks ago today and I miss him so much. He was a very happy person and we always had a good laugh together as well as worked together for 15 years and have two lovelys sons and five grandchildren. I find I now have to pick myself up and try and start a new life, which isn't going to be easy. I have to get back into my business and smile at customers and try to help them which will take me out of myself in time I'm sure. I don't have to work the same hours I have before as we now employ a family member as manager and a student who does part time. So now I have to find motivation to get back into life and make a new one for myself. I have made a couple of small steps working for 2-3 hours at a time and even went to the spiritulist church on my own the other evening, which I haven't been to in 25yrs. I had a message from my husband so it must have been him that gave me the encouragement to go. I've also contacted an old friend who was widowed 9 yrs ago, but doesn't seem to have moved on, I don't know if by helping her I can help myself.
