Never thought I could do this

I really am moving on...We received four letters from Nmom yesterday, each addressed to different family members, my children included. I burned the letters in the woodstove, unopened.

celebrating a new stage....

flower - I have a woodstove and I'm not afraid to use it -- even when the house is already 80 degrees inside.

Curious:
Didn't you post this yesterday?

Curious no more:
I did!  :D

Hi Flower:

You did what needed to be done and it wasn't easy, I think I hear you saying that?

Now, it feels good to have accomplished doing something so hard for you (from the title of this thread)?

Flower, congratulations!  That's fantastic!  It took guts!  And you did it without getting into some heavy duty self-criticism.  You feel good about your step forward?   And so you should, so you should, Flower.

Good for you.  Next time, if there is one, will be easier, and so on.

For me, I wish so much that I would receive a letter and so to think of buring it, well, that's just a traumatic thought!  So I really see how much courage and determination and resolve, how much logical thinking and how much emotional preparation that took, Flower.

I'm happy for your accomplishment.  That wasn't easy!  Way to go!

Flower,

Good for you. Just because some nut sends letters doesn't mean you're obligated to read them. Do you open every single piece of junk mail you get? Her mail is the same thing. Out it goes.

Keep up the good work!
