Welcome!

Hey Ya'll! Welcome to my blog! First of all thanks for stopping in to check it out and I hope you find some inspiration here and some comfort if you need it. If that's why you're here... I'm so sorry that you're going through this too, but I can't believe it's for nothing... there is something bigger in store still for all of us! This here is a work in progress, but if you have any questions, comments, suggestions, feedback at all I'd be happy to have some. I hope to be talking to you soon.

Bucket List

I'm starting a list. I guess I need this. I need to have something to look forward to, to work towards, to dream of, a reason to get out of bed every day. Since I lost Preston, I've seemed to have lost my way... maybe it was long before Preston but it's much worse now. I don't get out of bed for days at a time, I never remember what day it is even on important days, I don't sleep, I am sick to my stomach all the time when I think about going outside, my life has become non existent. The only escape I've had from this pain that never seems to subside is in the movies. Which is what brings me to my list. I am going to start writing down all the things that I want to do before I die, and keep a running tally of what I accomplish along the way. I'm dying here in this room, in this bed, just sleeping my life away being unhappy all the time. Preston wouldn't want this for me. I don't want this for me, but I don't know how to change it... so this is what I'm doing. Here goes.
