Not a very good day.

[2lilboots]

I got up this morning with all intent to soap all day. I had everything ready and was raring to go... Then I got a txt msg, then a voice mail. Tragic news an unexpected death in the family. For some reason the msg and the phone call didn't come thru my phone last night when they were placed. I had everything ready so I decided to finish making my soap, but nothing is turning out right, and I am just sick to my stomach. I just should have dumped the lye/water mixture down the drain and allowed myself to grieve. My heart just wasn't in it, and my poured soap batter shows it. I figured it would help me keep my mind off things while I was waiting for more news about what happened. But I was wrong. So young, so sad, their life all ahead of them and gone just like that. Lord help me understand.

Thank you I am just a bit north of you in Jacksonville. I appreciate the hug. I was talking to my oldest son who is 30 and he said, Mom I haven't been to a funeral since I was 5. He said he didn't know what to do. That made me cry.

That is what I don't understand, this kid had everything going for him. He was so bright, so creative, had a college degree, his life seemed to be so good. I feel so awful, I can't even imagine how my sister feels right now, she is just in shock right now, but it hasn't hit home for her yet. He was so spiritual as well. It just doesn't make sense.

I'm so sorry for your sadness, lilboots. I can understand wanting to soap to keep your mind occupied and forestall the wave of feelings. I might try to do the same thing before I finally sat down and dealt with it all. I hope you get through this okay.

I would like to thank everyone for their prayers, hugs, and very kind words. I am very grateful. You don't even know me, but you feel my pain and you comforted me. I am blessed to have such wonderful online friends. Thank you again.
