The ladies went out for dinner and drinks and then came home and sat around the fireplace recapping.  Oh, and one of them gets a surprise for her upcoming seventeith bday!

The Merry Widows talk about living alone.. security, dogs, regular contact with kids and siblings and cooking for one. But, before that, Donna and Eileen did some dog sitting in Chicago while some of the others spent the weekend out with Bob (The Bartender).

The Merry Widows talk about the "firsts." The first year is difficult. Adjusting to being alone varies between individuals. But, before they address the "firsts,", the talk about attending their first Halloween themed wedding in the Merry Widows Wagon!

After a review of hanging out at the V.F.W. and a few stories about a road trip, and a guy "falling" for Jan, The Merry Widows talk about the various phases of grief. Where are each of them on the grief spectrum? How did they move forward?  Do they ever slip backward?

We were so happy with the practice recording, we decided to publish it. What do we have to lose?  We are the proud Merry Widows of Pittsburgh and happy to be on the internet with our stories.
