In late October 2018, my husband left. And the hospital people couldn't bring him back.

He's gone, and there's nothing i can do about that.  i loved him and took care of him - he had been weak from heart failure.  He'd load the firewood on the truck, and i brought it into the house.  The folding chair he used is still in the wood crib - and that's not going anywhere.

What i can do is: get up when i please, make a meal - or not, go to bed when i choose, work in the yard if i want to.  In short, why be miserable over events of which you have no say?  My husband is gone, it's not like i can demand the Lord to bring him back.  That's not happening.

But even with limited funds, i am free to live alone, and am allowed to enjoy this space.  And what's most freeing of all is: the last thing i feel constrained to do is, go on e-hormany, or any other meat-market site.  Last thing i want is...ew, that. 

Yep, there's freedom when yer 60+   Just sign me, lady mgtow.
