@Bunniekins It is going to be a rough day today, as grand final day brings up memories of the event that lead up to worse time in my life. When my partner passed away. It’s been 23 years and I still struggle from time to time.

@Dreamy I plan on having a few drinks today, as it is the 23rd anniversary for the events that lead up to my partner's death. Some years I am ok and I can deal with it and some years I can't. Just over a week ago I noticed that when watching shows with death or something sad in it, I would start crying. So the emotions are already on high alert.

@Dreamy thank you. I remember last year, I got through it better than I thought by using this forum. Sometimes you just have to tell someone exactly how you feel. And that helps 😊
