We have spent a lot of time over the last few days reminiscing about holidays and times spent with my parents.<br />It has been pretty wet here today but I still got out twice for walks with K and L dodging showers and late afternoon they even had a paddle in the sea!Devon Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13214308272780654555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909385575933057644.post-80084381881148731332021-05-15T10:36:01.488-07:002021-05-15T10:36:01.488-07:00Big virtual hugs to you, anniversaries are always ...Big virtual hugs to you, anniversaries are always painful. <br />I hope you remember your mum with a glass of something lovely and some happy memories. <br />The weather's been awful here too but we still enjoyed out NT visit and I've spent all day in the garden today, you could have wrung me out I was that wet! xxxVixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05263970600699632661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909385575933057644.post-56668438194424280282021-05-15T04:04:20.759-07:002021-05-15T04:04:20.759-07:00I think it must be one of the hardest things to co...I think it must be one of the hardest things to cope with, losing parents. You go through life enjoying get togethers and making memories but I don't think you ahead look ahead to all that ending and then suddenly it has. It will be good that from next week we can get back into a routine of going up to see my Dad once a month for the weekend and taking him out.<br />The books are both very good but especially The Secrets of Strangers which I just couldn't put down.Devon Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13214308272780654555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909385575933057644.post-44151012690299587292021-05-15T03:13:57.245-07:002021-05-15T03:13:57.245-07:00One never really gets over the loss of parents, Em...One never really gets over the loss of parents, Emma, and I'm really sorry to hear of the death of your mother a year ago. But eventually, you will remember the good times without wanting to cry. My Mum died 20 years ago last November and I still miss the times we enjoyed together as we both had a silly sense of humour and all kinds of things would set us off laughing, whereas others wouldn't crack their faces! We could laugh so much we almost wet ourselves, believe me. My Dad died when he was only 66 and so Mum was widowed for many years before her own death, aged almost 88. I'm glad your Dad is coping and thank goodness he has you and the grandchildren to keep him going. <br />The books look interesting. I will look for those on Amazon. <br />Glad you are enjoying your new job, too. <br />Margaret P galanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14190356279359463949noreply@blogger.com
