pickA friend of the family gave me, my sister, and my mom this book after my dad died a year ago tomorrow. I‘ve been reading a page a day, as it is organized by calendar days. I do think it helped. There were some common themes that resurfaced throughout the year. It at least regularly gave me the space once a day to work through my grief. As the book mentioned, there is no set time for when it will feel better. A year later doesn‘t stop the hurt.

The world is a sad place today. We lost our sweet, spunky, mischievous boy Froedrick last night. He‘d been sick for a little over a week, and last night the Drs finally determined he had cancer either in a major organ or his bone marrow. We had to let him go.
I‘m a little broken today. The world will never be quite the same. 😢💔
Hug your pets and loved ones.
My bedside table 📚 What bookish treasures are on yours?

So after a night with much less sleep than usual, I am feeling better about the acquisition (I guess that‘s the best descriptor) of Litsy by LibraryThing. Many thanks to @TimSpalding for taking so much time and displaying infinite patience in addressing our concerns, both here and on the FB forum. Thanks also to @MrBook for facilitating the discussion here. To quote the song, “it‘s a new dawn, it‘s a new day, it‘s a new life—feeling good.”
Looking for a good rechargeable book lamp for bed time reading in our@camper.
