Have you ever had the urge to just get in your car one day and drive as far away as you could, leaving everyone and everything behind? Just start over where no one knows you? Where no one …… KNEW you?

I’m guessing that many of you have because of all you’ve gone through. I’m wondering if anyone has actually done it.

That’s the kind of week I’m having.

I’m not sure what difference it would make, in the end.

But sometimes it feels as if I’m failing at everything I should be doing well ….. being a mother, being a friend, being an employee. It’s one of those weeks where I feel completely zapped of energy so I can’t seem to do anything right.

I think we need a “Rehab” for widows. Some place where we can leave everything behind and just breathe for as long as we need it. Some place not too hot, not too cold and with a beautiful view.

We wouldn’t have to buy groceries, pay bills, cook, make decisions, wear masks ….. we could just …… be.

And slowly get stronger.

Anyway, that’s my fairy tale dream of the day.

I wonder what yours is?
