Still thinking about you Wardy. Like everyone else says you take your time in clearing things. Don't rush into anything you are not ready for, you need time to grieve properly. Being in your garden will be a wonderfully healing thing and I am glad you are finding solace there.
I always think it would be very helpful if those who have been bereaved could wear a black ribbon during their grieving time to symbolise their loss or something like that. People can't be expected to just join in with day to day life again without some acknowledgement that they are still in grief. Life changes dramatically and traumatically when someone you love dies, and there should be some means to show that, during that intense time. There will always be a time to move on and join the world again, but for the early stages it would be a good symbolic gesture. busy_lizzie
