I know I can do this but feeling so nervous

[bloodywhitecat]

It's ridiculous really. I am about to take the kids away for a few days. It is the first time break we have had since DH died in February and I feel really nervous about doing it. It is also going to be our last trip away together as our little family will change again in a couple of months as one of the fosterlings will be moving on. I think I have packed everything we need but even if I haven't, we'll manage.

I guess it's just the newness and the difference of the situation.

you've got this! Focus on the positives and have a fun time!

Ask yourself if your dh would be saying you can't do it or would be be giving you the encouragement to go for it ?

You can do it. Go and have a great time!! I'm sorry about your DH.

You can do this.
and if you’ve not packed anything I bet you can either do without it or get it wherever you’re going.
i hope you all manage to enjoy your time away

It's not ridiculous at all. It's totally normal to feel anxious.Well done for taking this step. You are amazing.

Oh I hope you have such a lovely time😀
I’ve followed your story from the beginning and you so deserve some light and life🥰
Have a wonderful time, sending you good vibes😀

I was widowed in 2015 (since remarried). From one widow to another - these milestones are hard. You feel what you feel. Give it a go, and be kind to yourself. 💐

Well, we got here I might've got a bit lost. Now to figure out where to eat so heading to town to find somewhere child friendly. Thank you for the support 😊

What kind of idiot packs everything bar nappies!

Your kind of idiot, in the gentlest way possible because you're amazing. It will become a funny story, "Remember when "Bloodywhitecat forgot the nappies?"
