I need to start going through my husband’s “stuff”. He was an avid fisherman and hunter so I have loads of fishing equipment to give away and a bass boat to sell. I can’t make myself do this just yet…he will be gone a year the 19th of this month. I’m not moving or downsizing so there’s really no hurry. I guess when it’s time I’ll know…

Ginny…I am going through this as well….however, with a different twist….my husband Dave died 3.2.16. We lived in Vermont since 2011…we chose to move to the Northeast when we retired…silly us. Anyway,, when his Cancer returned….we fought and fought…until a point when it was known treatments were no longer helping. We then chose to stop all treatments, move back to Ohio and live life joyfully with our children, grandchildren, family and friends. He died at home….in our townhouse.
I am now moving….yes a daunting task of downsizing……47 years of marriage…I know I will be able to do it…through tears and deep emotions. I too have met someone special….we love each other….however, we are not going to marry or live together….I’ve found happiness….and that will be helpful in my downsizing move….Thank You for this post!
