My daughter went back home today so this is my first day truly alone. I am trying to look at this as the beginning of a new life rather than an ending. Doing OK so far. Got Tom's ashes back from the mortuary yesterday and rather than being difficult as I though it would be, it brought a feeling of peace. I said Good Morning to him when I got up this morning and read my paper and drank my coffee sitting in "his" chair. We agreed that I would keep his ashes and that in the likely event that I move to be nearer my family, I will take him with me so that wherever I end up we can still be together. I truly hope that knowledge comforted him at the end.
