That was then, this is now...

Last year at this time:	This year:
Please, invite me to anything, anytime, anywhere. Please, distract me as much/as often as possible. ("I'm dancing as fast as I can!")	Happiest in my shell (again)
Difficulty concentrating whether reading books, multi-tasking, etc.	Same as last year
Find weird comfort in Facebook (Fits short attention span?)	Same as last year
Going from feeling fine to crying in 1 second	Same as last year
Didn't know there could be so many tears - not just teary but rolling down the cheeks tears	Same as last year
Making guttural noises I didn’t know could come out of my mouth	Same as last year
A basket of Sympathy cards on a table in the hall	Still on hall table - untouched
Profound sorrow, missing the person of our Brandon (at all ages/stages)	More profound/deeper
Appreciate the gift that is each of my children	Stronger than last year
