Late Night Purchases

I am making the master bedroom into an art studio and I am taking my current room for art as my bedroom. Wendy, a good friend who I consider family, is moving in with me. She is artsy too so between the both of us we needed a bigger space for all our supplies so the master bedroom will be our art room. I found a table when browsing online for new chairs for the dining room. The table was half off and longer than both of our current tables put together. Plus it had free shipping. I got a text yesterday morning from the delivery company saying they would be here about 10am, but they wouldn’t bring it into the house. They bring it as close to the door without going up stairs. When I saw them wheel it out of the truck, I had a few choice words for myself about my late night, grief induced, retail therapy purchase.

Thankful for friends coming to the rescue and helping me get it inside. The table out of the box is heavy duty and in the box…ouch. It definitely will be a good table. It is long and wide so will be great for the art room, but yes I need to be careful with my late night grief purchases.

All that said, it hurts to be planning and moving forward with these plans send me into a deeply aching grief. I look forward to the art room and I hate it at the same time. I know the reason it is coming about is because my beloved has died. There is not happy feelings with that.

How do I resolve moving forward without her?
