I'm self-soothing by grief-shopping at Sephora. I wish I didn't like Drunk Elephant products so much.
I guess I'll wait until Tim gets home to grief-buy a couch at IKEA. (We've needed a new couch for probably 2 years, and have budgeted for it, but we couldn't get our act together to shop for one. But we went to IKEA a couple of weekends ago, and actually really like the Ektorpp sofa, but we didn't want to just impulse purchase it that day. So we just need to officially agree that yup, this is the couch we want in Stately Beckmeyer Manor, and THEN I'll grief-buy a couch.)
I'm sorry for your loss, Teppy. Also, Go Bro!
Steph, I'm so sorry for your loss. Best wishes to your brother.
I am so sorry for your loss Steph
Oh, I'm so sorry, Teppy. But that's also wonderful news about your brother!
Oh no, I'm so sorry, Steph. Glad for good news about your brother, though.
Sorry for your loss, Steph. But that IS really great your bro is doing so well.
And I hate to feel like a driveby, never shows up except when she needs hugs and hairpats - but need I to get this out (and wouldn't mind hugs and hairpats). So, just got final confirmation that my most recent Crush/Friend has ghosted me. The last time we got together we had a really real conversation that I thought went really well. Apparently, I read it wrong, alas. I really adored this one and we had such a strong start...but it's been sputtering for a while. I thought we might recover, but I guess it's not meant to be. I've been thinking about my final move (to get confirmation) for several days, so I think I'm not as heartbroken as I would have been. But still...sucks. I'm really bummed to lose the friendship. I was prepared to move on from the crush part and continue to enjoy the friend part, but apparently communication was too much to ask.
I'm sorry, Epic. That is really hard. {{Hugs and Hairpats}}
I'm sorry for your loss, Steph. May her memory be a blessing.
