Congratulations on your promotion Beth, this is wonderful!
I can empathise with you, I have often often wanted to share something with my Dave, my Dearest friend, and I miss him so terribly when that happens.
Today I went to church and was looking forward to seeing my daughter and her family there. They were'nt there however, so I sat in a pew by myself . In front of me was a tall man with his wife. At one time she put her arm around his shoulder and rubbed his back and I lost it right there and then. I didn't know whether to leave or not, but I just pulled myself together and got through it. Sundays are just the loneliest times I think and seeing all those people with their significant others puts me in a melancholy mood for the rest of the day.
My Thoughts are with you Beth, you are not alone,
Paddy
