Day One After

I stayed at Vanessa's last night.

A huge thank you to all of you who gathered at the theater last night, and gathered here over the course of yesterday, and gathered in a couple of online places for me...

It helps. It really does.

  2. You are a strong, beautiful woman. I know you can make it through this. Please don't be afraid to ask for a shoulder to cry on, or a person to yell at or throttle or what ever it is you need to do. We are all here for you and love you.

    With all my love,

  3. Ronni,
    I don't get online as often as I used to but this morning I decided to pop over to see how things were going on your blog. I am so truly sorry. I am a praying person and you and your entire family will be in my thoughts and prayers. I'm so very sorry. There are simply no words that seem appropriate, but I hope you find comfort in knowing how many people will be praying for you. God Bless you.

  5. Dear Ronni, I have been reading your blog for a long time. I have enjoyed your stories and feel like I got to know you and your family through your stories.

    Your words have made me love you even though we never met.

    I am so very sorry to read about Jim's tragic end. I pray for you and your family.

    Bless you and yours,
    Sarah

    Thanks to everyone for your kind words and actions.

  10. I was up most of the night out here on the left coast and you never left my thoughts. I am with you in spirit, as are so many people who aren't with you physically.

    I cried with you in disbelief, sorrow and yes, anger too. I know right now you are numb.

    As others have said, please don't be afraid to reach out when you need to.

    We all love you Ronni.

  11. Ronni, you don't need to manage, yet. It's fine just to sit. A shock like this and the emotions resulting from it are overwhelming and it will take time.

    You have friends who love you and we're all here for you, whether it be in person or in spirit.

    You and the kids are in my heart and in my prayers.

    ~hugs~

  18. Ronni, I'm so very sorry for you and your family. I've been struggling since I heard to find some words that might express my sorrow, shock, anger, and surprise. So far I have found none. So let me leave you with this instead. We love you and wish you the best and if you want to get away, our door and our hearts are wide open forever to you. All our love. - Martin

  19. Good morning, Ronni. I hope your 'take control' visitor is having a positive effect. You probably just want to be left alone, though.
