The Musician: Part III

June 18, 2015 by Stephanie Vendrell Leave a Comment

Catch up on part I and part II. This is the last part. But it will be long.   Katherine’s birth had a profound effect on me. The reality that Mike was gone forever, never to know his beautiful granddaughter, cast a shadow over what should have been simply a joyous event. I was devastated thinking of this little girl growing up without Mike’s…

Dating in the After

April 25, 2015 by Rebecca Collins Leave a Comment

For some reason, I seemed to have developed the assumption that dating would be easier this time around.  God knows why.  I think, maybe, I decided that after being through something so horrific, that by the time I got to the stage where I felt ready to open my heart again I would have accumulated some kind of positive ‘love karma’ and earned…

Expect the Unexpected

March 31, 2015 by Mike Welker Leave a Comment

Megan had not only given me permission to “move on” again once she was gone, she had outright demanded it, years before she died.  She refused to take my heart with her, leaving a hole in me that could never be filled.  This is why, in the deepest pit of my soul, I believe she has brought someone new into my life in the best way…

A Good Cup of Coffee

January 8, 2015 by Stephanie Vendrell Leave a Comment

The feeling of “different” in this new year is hard to ignore. The blustery and yes, chilly, air here in this Hawaii January at our altitude somehow serves to remind me that changes will continue to happen, and the unexpected might still be lurking around the corner. When I woke up this morning I lay there for a few minutes thinking about the…

The Next Chapter

January 3, 2015 by Rebecca Collins Leave a Comment

Well so far, 2015 is not going as planned, as I came down with a yucky head cold on New Years Day and have spent the past few days in bed, wishing Dan were here to fuss over me.I had such grand plans of spending the last few days of my Summer holiday enjoying time with my family and friends, hitting the gym to start shaking the couple of kilos that…

Neighbors of the Heart

December 28, 2014 by Sarah Treanor and Mike Welker Leave a Comment

It’s been a few weeks since I shared about going on my first date with someone since my fiancé died. I have been through every wave of emotion imaginable since then. I have cried buckets of tears for how much this experience has made me miss my fiancé. For how much all of this is bringing up old familiar memories and joys I shared with him…

The First Date.

December 14, 2014 by Sarah Treanor and Mike Welker Leave a Comment

SO. After two and a half years… it finally happened. I had my first date this week. I can’t even tell you how this happened. I had no idea this person would be interested and I’ve never much been interested in him either. It sort of came out of the blue… no real warning, no time for planning how I want to feel about this step. Just… bam,…
