Take one moment at at time. Breathe......

Have a planned serving size portion and enjoy them.

If you have more they will never taste as good as the planned for serving size. Then the vicious cycle begins a again.

You have a wedding to think about. Best wishes imaluckydog

Because you know it never really was about corn chips. The comfort that you are seeking isn't in the chips like they used to be. Grieve the loss of a friend. Find friends to share in a moment before you let all the joy seep in.

Corn chips won't fill the hole your feeling left by Fred and Rita. But the coming days of happines for your family will!

Stress affects us all. First, as you did on your blog, focus on the positive -- your friend and groom's mother will be with you all in spirit. Second, you are doing so many great things for your daughter's beautiful wedding. Enjoy the time.

Finally, you are a constant source of inspiration and support to so many in your life. Give yourself 15 minutes of reflection and down time and it will help.

And like Im said -- figure out a serving, put it on a plate and look at it. Throw the rest of the bag DEEP in the garbage.

Best of luck to you in all this. God's Peace........

I have chills and a heavy heart from your story. What a blessing you are to your SIL and your daughter. I have no doubt she is going to be a beautiful bride and you, a beautiful mother of the bride!

My daughter just got married this past summer and what I do know is that your son-in-law does have a good parent in you. The fact that you knew his parents is a blessing because you can pass on the good memories of his parents with your future grandchildren. The act of love that bedazzling the wedding dress exhibits, points to your big heart!!!!!
