"Have a wonderful evening" [View all]

I picked up a pizza for supper last night and almost had to leave the store without it. Everyone was so cheerful.

"Hi! how are you doing?" (well, my dad just died)
"Welcome to pizza store. What can we get for you?" (happiness?)
"It'll be right up!" ( )

I stood at the edge of the store, arms crossed over my chest, hands under my arms, waiting rather than running because I really wanted to take a pizza home for my husband.

"Here's your pizza. Hope you have a great evening" ( )

However, progress was made in that I ate a piece and my stomach didn't hurt.

For history, it was expected, he was old, I'm a nurse who does in home care, home health, hospice and had to play it out as a family member letting someone I love die.

It's been a month. Steps forward, steps back, steps forward.

Best wishes to you all.
