Thirty Days of Mo(u)rning

A widower at forty-two. What Kateri gave me… what cancer took away… and how I'm coping with life from the woods of Vermont

    • 2 Days After My 3rd 4th of July… a widower moment.

      Posted at 8:07 pm by Darren Lidstrom, on July 6, 2020

      Yay!… the lazy blog post! I was gonna do one yesterday because I had a pretty wonderful Holiday Weekend and have been feeling pretty good lately… but didn’t. Oh… I tried. Spent hours trying to figure out what I wanted to share… how I wanted to share it… and realized… there was just too much. There were simply too many fun experiences, interesting situations, positive steps in this new life, good memories, and some sad ones over the last little bit for me to consolidate them into something that would capture the… je ne sais quoi (that’s French!)… warm n fuzzy feeling…?.. with a sense of security….?.. and easiness…? (A feeling of refreshing tranquility and an absence of tension or worry… yup. Thanks google!)  So, I watched Unsolved Mysteries instead… and today you get a “Widower” post.

      First… some pics from my third 4th of July… in this new life.

      And now… a video… about a memory… that keeps coming back.
