Can I just say, I haven't lost a parent, but I did lose a much loved MIL two years ago. The first year is very very hard. Don't tell yourself that you should be recovered and over the grief 'now'. Give yourself time. The first year is full of the 'firsts', first easter without them, first birthday without them, first Christmas without them, first anniversary. It really does take a year to get back to 'normal', and dealing with a new job, and other changes, does make it harder.

The plan to 'live right' for two weeks sounds good though, I 'should' do that . I'm very bad at not getting enough sleep .
