Re: Newbie.....go easy on me

Welcome.  So sorry for you loss. Hope you are coping well. The best healer is passage o time. QVC has kept me company many a late, sleepless night also. I turn it down low and usually end up falling asleep on the couch. There are a lot of kind people on these forums as you can tell by previous replys. Hugs to you!

Hi Red, welcome to the forums. There are many sweet and helpful people here. Occasionally someone will be snippy but I just ignore them. I try to remember to focus on the positive.

So very sorry for your loss. Congratulations on degree. Welcome to forum. There's a great deal of wisdom and caring on the board.

Don't be intimidated by the few negative comments, this is an overwhelming positive place.

About "deals", reading reviews are always helpful. Checkout last click, as is,

lunchtime and late night specials for deals. 

Good luck.

Hey. I too am sorry for your loss. The forums can be a nice way to pass some time even if you don't shop on QVC, much. I hope your job search goes well & you find just the place for you.

@RedRidinghood

 

Well hello there Red and welcome to the Community.  I lost my husband at the beginning of 2007 and started watching QVC after I had major surgery at the end of 2007.

 

The silence at night is deafening and sleep does not come easily, boy do I remember that time of my life.  I promise you this - be patient with yourself and sleep when you can.  The first 4 seasons of this journey are going to be the toughest as each season will bring fresh new reminders of the loss. 

 

As far as deals at the Q?  Well, they aren't as easy to come by as they were when I started watching back in the day.
