About Me
My name is Kristin. I was widowed in 2010 before my 68th birthday, after 45 years of a happy marriage. My husband Bill died two years after his diagnosis with cancer, and he did his best to prepare me for life alone. I live in a ranch-style rambler built in the 1950s with almost three acres of land. I am contending with an aging house and a lot of property to maintain. I am a poet, a traveler, and a gardener. I am blessed with friends and family. I am writing this blog to share my journey on the path of widowhood and to offer encouragement to others.
Kristin, You write so well! The dinner for seven one really got to me since I’d like to invite two couples to dinner, but the idea of there being five instead of six is hanging me up. Thanks for your insight.

Thanks, Connie, sorry for the delay in replying. I think formal sit-down dinners are very hard for a widow, maybe something more casual will be easier. I love my friends, and am so glad that the couples have not abandoned me.
Blessings on your blog, thanks for sharing.
Thank you, Alisa!
