Your friend loved you enough to worry about you; that is beautiful. <br /><br />When my friend's husband died suddenly, I spent the first week out in my camper, scrapbooking and collaging. It was very therapeutic, as I was not quite ready to go to her and it gave me the space my spirit seemed to need in order to prepare myself for the days I would spend with her. <br /><br />Try out the recipe for a grief bath that is on my blog (click the image under "Need a Hug?"). You may never know if it really helped/supported you, but it won't hurt, and ... I believe it does comfort and strengthen us. OK, me; I'll just speak for myself.<br /><br />-KateStubblejumpin Galhttp://goldengrainfarm.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14874528.post-64751675806534278672015-02-01T18:35:16.477-03:302015-02-01T18:35:16.477-03:30Thanks GM, I don't normally work with 8mm need...Thanks GM, I don't normally work with 8mm needles but this seemed to be what was needed.
