First let me start by telling everyone thank you for the sweet wishes and prayers. It has been a long hard road but the kids and I are slowly learning to live with out DH. I am back on-line and trying to gain my footing again. I am not going to be opening the store back up for awhile, with everything else that is on my plate I don't think I could keep up. To those that orders were not fullfilled I am sorry, that is the best I can say and that I hope you can forgive me.
I never realized exactly how much DH did around the farm until he was gone, now it is up to the 3 of us to keep it going because I will not give up, this was a life long dream of both of ours and I will keep it going.

Melanie, I am so sorry. I don't know what happened but it sounds like you are doing well right now. I wish we lived closer so I could help you out. I am glad to see you back here.

Hugs, Kris

Thank you everyone for the warm wishes and support. I will be posting to my blog hopefully later this week, I honestly couldn't have kept going as far as we have if it wasn't for my wonderful family and friends who rallied around me and Kept the farm running while I was down.

I lost my dh in april so I know where you are coming from. People just don't always realize how much someone contributes until they are no longer there. My heart and prayers go out to you and your family. If you ever need to talk, just email me...

Melanie, my thoughts and prayers also go out to you.....it is such a difficult time, thank goodness you have your children with you. If you need to chat, vent, or just "go someplace" to ease your mind, you might check out the "Stories from us widow women" thread, it's a few pages back. It has helped so many of us out, in so many different ways!! Once again, my prayers are with you.

live, laugh, love
