Here's how I reuse object refs...

Public oIE As SHDocVw.InternetExplorer

Set oIE = New SHDocVw.InternetExplorer '//create instance
'//use the instance for some processes
Set oIE = Nothing '//destroy the instance

...where each time the object is needed a new instance gets
created/used/destroyed. This usually requires some process to make
repeated calls to the process using the object, and so you may need to
restructure code accordingly.
