Treading water

The above describes the way I am currently coping most days, although I do think I am slowly moving forward as well. Grief is certainly a strange beast. I feel as though there is a weight upon me and my feelings are still quite numb. I hope in time both will pass. I only work two days per week, yet I don't seem to have the time or energy to get all my tasks done. It's as if I am also in slow motion - time passes but I appear to achieve little.
So, I aim for a couple of 'jobs' each day and feel satisfied with that. In the past I was able to cope with so much more, but my head feels 'full' already. I think this is probably 'normal' and no longer beat myself up about it. I have heard there is a 'National Solace Grief Conference' in Sydney on October 8th & 9th which may be helpful - the preliminary program looks good so far. See: http://www.solace.org.au/
