    Sigh! How I used to love November - my daughter Shawnee's birthday is today and every so many years it would fall on Thanksgiving. I used to call her my turkey baby when she was little. Then it was time to decorate for Christmas and start baking cookies - what fun we had! She has been gone 8 years now and I can't help but be depressed. Even more depressing is the fact that I am the only one that seems to remember these dates. I hate when it seems like no one remembers her!

    I'm so sorry Blue Spurrs, are there any rituals you do each year to remember her with?

    I am so sorry.  It is so hard when you feel like you're bearing a weight alone.  I am with Dorsay:  maybe you could develop some rituals to do yourself or with someone you're close to.  Maybe if you do that every year it will be your "time" to mourn, so you don't end up feeling terrible indefinitely.  Does that make sense?  I am so sorry though.  Thinking of you.

    I'm sorry, at least you can be thankful for the time you did have together. My thoughts go out to you.

    Thinking of you tonight, bluespurrs.  Cuddle up with your husband and share some stories about her with him-- that's always helpful to take some of the pain away.
