@Sheannutt I keep doing things that I usually enjoy, but then I feel worse when I don't enjoy them. So now I'm resigned to creating arbitrary goals to work towards just to have something to focus on.
@Sheannutt I don't want to be in our house any longer, either. Unfortunately, I can't afford to sell it yet.
So true.

I am so sorry for your loss. My mom was my best friend, confidante, and compass. She'd set me straight if I was wrong and was my biggest champion if I was being wronged. I miss her laugh and sense of humor the most.
What are your best memories of your dad, if you don't mind sharing? 
I'm not sure what counts as "recovery" or if it's even appropriate. It becomes the fabric of your life and story.
I don't believe in "closure" for loss of a loved one.
From the bio doc of Anderson Cooper & his mother Gloria Vanderbilt I carry this with me(paraphrased): "There is no answer for why, it just is".
I need to watch that one again, almost didn't the 1st time & glad I did.
