A DATE? SERIOUSLY? ALREADY?

I couldn't believe what I was hearing when Dad said that he was going on a date.  Mom had been gone from us only about a month and already Dad was out on the town meeting women.  I was heartbroken.

I know that Mom would know that this would be Dad's way, but at the same time, I think she would agree with me.  A month is just too soon.

I think what hurt the most was hearing how Dad was amazing the women with his dance moves and his ability to cook.  Wait a minute!!!  What about Mom?  Don't you remember her?  The dances you had with her?  She did most of the cooking, though.  Although Mom loved to cook and bake.

Dad has been attending some grief counseling sessions every week.  He has met some nice people that are suffering much as he is in the loss of a loved on.  He has also been going to the Senior Center every Friday night where he goes dancing. 

I just hope that Daddy isn't trying to replace Mom or trying to find a "love mate."  That idea in itself just disgusts me.  I hope that my feelings are wrong and off track.
