Since my OH passed away 2 month ago, I seem to find myself pacing up and down looking for something to do. I have at least 4 jobs on the go but I just seem to have difficulty finishing them. I have now sorted out OH belongings some of them I cant part with at the moment with a view to decorate the bedroom that he was in. I still have loads of paperwork on the table in the conservatory which I have lost interest in. I was in the middle of a book keeping course before OH was rushed into hospital 11 and a half weeks ago and I havent got back into it as well, as well as this I will need to go back to work at some point but the truth is I cant be bothered with any thing. I wish I didnt feel like this I just cant seem to make a decision about anything at the moment. Is this normal?

Hi @Angtrog - you have done a lot already - sorting out OH belongings is a very emotional task to tackle- well done. So you still have many unfinished jobs- that's fine, there is no rush. Bereavement is shocking and it will take a long time to get over. Allow yourself time and eventually you will feel better. Meantime reach out to us- we are always here to send hugs.
I totally agree with @Old Flopsy.. I can’t concentrate on anything for any length of time at the moment, and complete very little. I can’t even watch a full hour of TV. I love to read, but can’t even start a book let alone finish one. And all the ‘jobs’ I do around the house are done in a very rushed and slapdash way. My husband hasn’t died, but gone into a home! So, be kind to yourself. You’re grieving, and life looks very different. Take care.
Thanks @Banjomansmate ,@Old Flopsy , @None the Wiser ,@Pepp3r for all your advice. I have not had much to do with bereavement in my life so far I have been quite lucky parents still alive . I just miss him so much xxx
