Allow yourself the time for your feelings and know there
are better days ahead.
Just look at the outpouring of concern here.
Just know we have all been there and all have those days.
Hope each day gets easier.

I'm good. Just had a truly blue day with memories and looking for something familiar where nothing is familiar. But thankfully, the sun comes up and life goes on.

Nice to see you laugh, Diane. It's gonna be a great day!

I am sorry you feel this way today. Look at all the wonderful responses you got! I agree the "happy pills" do not fix anything. I just spent the day with my BFF Diane of 64 years, just shopping and laughing. It gets better, it becomes the norm.

I am coming in late October, just hang in there.

Life changes, and it is always for the better

Thank you all. I'm fine and back to normal again. Well......as normal as I get anyway. LOL.

wow, diane. you've got an amazing bounce going on there! way to go.

I thought I would check on you and see how your weekend went. I bounced back, had a good weekend, back at work and taking time to see what is going on in TV. It looks, from reading this thread, that you have made quite a few new friends and I hope that you are feeling much better. Be well, just dropping a note to say Hi and wish you well. SMills

I've taken on the attitude of "go with the flow". When sad hits - I go with it. When sad is done - I move on. I'm thinking about new adventures and things to do.

Thank you. I'm glad you're better too. I did a few things over the weekend and today ran chores in Ocala. Life goes on.

Gosh, the support here is super! I too am having a hard time adjusting to the move, neighbors and missing home and my friends there. And I've been sick all day so that's not helping. Can't wait to make friends here!

Trust me when I say that I understand. The adjustment is a b****. I desperately miss what was but am trying not to dwell. Talk to your old friends. They love you and will listen. Your Villages life will happen. Get some rest and feel better. Tomorrow is another day.

Good for you Diane.

Dreamer, I hope you are planning to go to Gracie's lunch. That would be a great way to meet people and commiserate with people missing home and friends. And Gracie is friendly, loving, caring. I'm sorry I can't be there to meet all the people. Next time!

We spent six weeks from mid May to early July in MI packing up our condo. It was 60 and raining the whole time, and I was so anxious to get back down here to the warmth. Three days after we arrived I came down with a horrible cold that lasted for two weeks. I was thinking, What's wrong with this picture? It's 90 degrees and I get a cold!

I think stress brings these little illnesses on. I hope whatever it is you have is minor, and that you recover soon.
