I won't click on tonybob's link. I won't I won't.  Just off out for a bite to eat, but fancy a waffle a bit later if anyone's around...  |

Today would have been my late husband's birthday. It's awful that instead of buying a present and lovely card I'm taking flowers to the cemetery. It's a glorious day here and had he been alive I'm sure he'd have been on the golf course or out fishing. Ah well that's life I suppose.  |

Poor Milly: it's always so difficult to know what to say in these situations, because nothing will ever really assuage the numbing sense of loss. At least you met the right partner and had happy years together: there are those in this world who are never even granted that. Scant comfort at such a time, I realise, but a blessing to be counted against the sorrow.
And you have another, younger, blessing to occupy your life, too.
With much love,
Ron

Ron said it well. I was one of people who did not know what to day.
It so wonderful to have a little boy to take care of. Children make one young and it is a blessing to look at them grow. It is like growing up again.
(I wish to visit my graves and I do but in my mind only.)

Thanks Ron. I do realise I was very fortunate to have as long as I did with him. Some people don't even get one full year's happiness in a lifetime - my own mother an example, poor lady. I do indeed have the younger blessing and as he is spookily like my husband, it's very comforting indeed. xxx |

Thanks t-p. Sorry to put people in such a quandary. I suppose I shouldn't have mentioned it really. |

Oh dear. I really seem to have the knack of killing threads stone dead. Let's have another go - just looked out the back and the tide is right in which is lovely to see, but it's brought some pretty dismal-looking clouds and the sky is a bit ominous-looking. Erm waffle...waffle....off on school run and then to football practice...waffle...waffle...can't talk about programmes on 3 today because I haven't listened to any....waffle....waffle.....  |

We have sun and rain periods. I have no teaching. The day is beautiful. I planted some flowers in the garden and put soil improving compost around.
You did not kill anything, Millie. We are just busy.
I am glad the sea looks so good today. I am considering should I go on to a promenade.

Well here on the south coast it's the most glorious day! Hot, but not too hot, fresh rather than sticky and a medium breeze to keep things manageable. Perfect!  |

Who are you playing football with, Milly?  Don't play with Biroc, he's a bit fierce I believe! I'm sorry that it's a sad day for you. But don't worry about killing threads - it's been a bit quiet on here generally for the last week or so, I think people must be going on holiday or finding outdoor things to do. |

I am too trying to get through this day. TP left on 3.30 but to Shannon. I probably slept a couple of hours. I don't think I should be driving today.
I don't know how the workshop will go. I wish he could retire, but he has to still run, publish in ranked journals etc.
At 9 in the evening my friend, who is a composer and my violinist are playing traditional session in a pub. It is going to be late night after 11. I want to go, but I am afriad to fall asleep there at unappropriate moment.
My mother tells me now things like: everything passes, this will also pass.
My mother is not what you would think of her. But that is another conversation.
Things will be really good, Millie, hang in there.

What ho! all. Which seems a bit unsympathetic when I consider what you are probably feeling right now, Milly. Your husband was a very fortunate man to have had your love. Do you watch the football when the young'un plays? Even if you haven't the slightest interest in spectator sports I know how important it is for children to know how proud we are of them, even if they don't score goals. |
