ENOUGH TO KEEP ME BUSY
WOW! There are so many business and legal things to attend to and so much paperwork to be completed connected with Karon’s death. I can see why one doesn’t have time to grieve. But perhaps all this is a part of the grieving process. At least for me it is bringing closure to my life with Karon. So far I have had her name removed from our cars’ registrations and titles; our banking accounts, all our credit cards and our house mortgage. So far everything has gone smoothly with no complications. It is helpful that you can call most credit card companies 24/7. There was only one I had to call during daytime business hours.
Each removal of her name brings an added sense of finality—that it is over and she is really “gone”. I think that’s a good thing. And each time her name is successfully removed from some document there is an increasing sense of accomplishment. I think it’s all good—at least so far. We’ll see what the future brings.
For now the hardest thing for me without Karon is that there is so much I want to tell her. When I hear from someone I want to tell her. When someone does something special I want her to know it. Several people have said, “Go ahead and tell her.” I haven’t decided about that yet.
But I do thank all from who I have heard. The contacts have been strengthening and very helpful. My very special friend who lives way too far from me called over the weekend and that was encouraging. Another very good friend invited me to dinner tonight. That is much appreciated. I’m looking forward to that
