Paper description

The author describes her journey to a second time of wedded bliss. After the death of her husband of 60 years, a man she adored, she says "I worked hard at the hard work of being a widow." By her own gumption, and the help of family and friends, she found new joy in life. She renewed friendship with a widowed friend and unexpectedly, as a young octogenarian, they began to date, finding new happiness together. They married and she says, "We felt whole again...this new pair, that was, US!" Note: A Sett is a Badger Lair.
