Magic: The Gathering. I recently lost my wife, so probably a lot of grief too. Also pics of our cat.
Pinned
I will pin this thread with a content warning: death, suicide.

It seems I don't think about much else at the moment, so will probably not post about much else.

Maybe I can return to posting about Magic: The Gathering eventually.
Today's a year since my wife passed way. It has been a very long and hard year, but also feels like it has gone very quickly. I can't believe it's been a year since I spoke to her.

Sunrise 2025. The first new year without her.

Kinda ended the stream sobbing but we raise OVER $25k for American suicide prevention! Unbelievable. Thanks for joining me in honoring Jbro whether you watched or donated. Means the world to me.

Tomorrow is our wedding anniversary. She's been gone for more than two months now. It is still hard to fully believe it.

I am so excited to own my first Magic the Gathering painting! Enduring Curiosity is so cute! 🐱

Thank you so much, @juliedillon.bsky.social and @mountainmagesigs.com! 🥰

I am really struggling today. I can't stop crying. The sharp pain and shock isn't there so much anymore, but I'm being ground down by her not being here and knowing she can never come back.

@h0lydiva.bsky.social Hello! And sorry that your eye infection is back.

She has been gone a month today. I feel like I am stuck in time.

I miss her.

Lemon is supervising my work.

I kind of thought this would upset me or even maybe make me feel jealous or resentful given my loss, but I actually find it comforting seeing others talk about their happy relationships and partners.

A picture of Lemon when she was still a little catten.

Backing up photos from my wife's old phones that I had on my hard drive (don't have access to her current phone -- seems she changed her PIN just before the end). It's easily 95% pics of our cat.

I think she's getting used to the new routine where I'm only here during the day, but she expects me to spend the whole day petting her.

I've been sorting through my ancient Middle-earth Collectible Card Game collection to distract myself. I like sorting and organising things.

I'm staying with my brother. I miss home, but keep on remembering it's not really going to feel like home without her.

It's sad seeing kudos still steadily coming through on my wife's AO3 account. She was very proud of her writing and happy that others liked it.

I'm not an AO3 user, so not sure if I should let people there know she's gone? Seems like maybe just leaving things for people to read is fine.

Can you spot the lizard?
November 13, 2024 at 5:11 AM
She is purring and content now.

Everything is very hard right now. It's taking me hours to do things that would usually take minutes. My brain moves so slowly and my body feels heavy.
November 12, 2024 at 10:02 AM
It's hard to take a pic of her today because she walks towards me as soon as I move far enough away to get her in frame.
November 11, 2024 at 10:39 AM
She was not happy that I was leaving again.

I am struggling today.
