Feeling really sad right now.....my wife as well.
one of our family members is moving away, to another state, and we will miss her dearly....I am not doing well right now, fighting back the tears of both being happy for her and feeling like my heart is being ripped out...my wife is in the other room, she can't talk, or function right now.
Our family member does not want a send off, or anyone to take her to the airport, she wants to avoid that whole scene.
we CAN understand that, we really can, but it still is ripping us apart, to not see her off..
I do recall when another family member left us, decades ago, and i was younger of course, and watching that person walk down the concourse to the airplane was tough on all of us then.........you really want to be there, then you don't, for what seems like a farewell that you will never, ever see that person again..and back then, it was indeed the FINAL time we would see or ever hear from that person again.
That person died, years after that, and we never knew, until finally word got to us, she had died.
life many times is fine, good, and great.
Then there are times it sucks, and you just want to die from the pain you are feeling.
of course, she has been asked to keep in touch, and hopefully all will be well, and her life will go on, with her happiness to her new life, in a new state.......we all know, no one is too far away that emails, texts and maybe phone calls can connect us with quickness and efficiency, at the snap of a finger...but it will be the empty seat at the dinner table on holidays, or those monthly visits that we will miss the most.
Christ, this F-ing hurts.
Somebody had better shoot a tree, or step on his cat's tail, or pour a drink
I am dying inside for my wife and me.
We WILL feel better, I know this, I just cannot take my wife's and my sadness right now.
, now the office is a **** show of confused dumb shits
