Finally realized that I'm going to have to finish painting the loft the same way I started:  playing songs of love and loss, grieving for my boy, and loosing myself in the painting. It's the only way the loft can get done and -- more importantly -- I think it's one of the things that has to be closed for me to let him go. Though I should have left Rebecca Ferguson's version of "I'll Count the Days" off the playlist. 😭

The other is for his headstone to finally be installed. Sent an email to the friend I'd been talking to. A couple of weeks ago she said it would a week or two before the 3rd one [since they F*d the first two] would be ready; then FOUR to SIX WEEKS before it got installed.  I'm still hoping it's there in time for his birthday on Memorial Day.

Finished  the first coat and stopping for lunch, pain Rx (storms moving in), and a Xanax (because I'm not so stupid as to not realize I need one).

Physical activity and working on a project can be good medicine for a troubled mind/heart. I hope the headstone is resolved quickly.

I only have the last coat of touch-up to do in the loft.  Should do that today instead of starting the doors but don't feel like joints would handle the up/down of the ladder (not that there won't be some up/down when paining the doors).
