Yesterday there were lots of comments on the blog.
But none from 'Unknown'.... gosh I miss them.
They were almost always from Mum.
Her last ever comment on the blog was on September the 13th, she was telling me off for complaining about the food in Quarantine!
Be thankfully at least there is food,crappy it may be but better than none at all.THE OLD MOO.
Isn't if weird the things you miss or that remind you that your loved one is no longer here.
Mum ABSOLUTELY LOVED the blog. She got cross when she couldn't read it for some reason or other. I hope wherever she is now, she can still see what is going on in her family and isn't getting cross with me over something!
She never held back on telling me off!
Notice I've not been swearing much on here?
I'm making a concentrated effort not to, both here and in the home.
I have a competition going on between key members of my family.
Whoever gets the LEAST swear words uttered in the house/around about, up until December the 24th wins a sum of money.
I'm losing. 😕😓😒 But ... I AM getting better!
I finally added another section on the 'Smile Tree' :
ABOVE: I got a kick out of putting that pom pom on the knobbly bit of the tree trunk. 😃😂😅
This time around, I'm taking my time with additions to the tree, no stress. No time frame.
Just when I can do it. Way better for my resolve to relax more, take my time and not stress out over things so much.
11.17 am: I've been pottering around the house this morning, making sure I have things sorted for the shop opening this afternoon.
Hugs. Your Mum sounded fabulous. More hugs.
ReplyDeleteYour mum will always be with you Chris, she is in your heart. Hold on to the good thoughts. Yvonne
ReplyDeleteMorning mum x
ReplyDeleteMy grandson had a swear jar for his mum and dad and they had to put 50c in everytime they swore. He was very switched on and didnt miss many even when his father yelled at the dogs Bloody Shut Up! Lol kj
ReplyDeleteGood Luck with the Word challenge! It's a great idea. The Smile Tree will surely be just that, something to smile about.
ReplyDeleteYour mum and my mum were very alike with a lot of things. Must have been the era they were bought up in.
