Calm...
I feel ok...on this second anniversary of Mum's passing. That is either someone watching over me and helping me find my way or that inner strength that people talk of that you find that gets you through the difficult times that life puts in your way.
The weather is dull and not very nice. I thought of having a look out but I have food and its not needed. I have a lamb hotpot in the slow cooker which is tasty(I've had a bowl already)I will have another for my evening meal perhaps around 6pm and I may have a final one when I come in from the music club for supper. Its mainly vegetable based and the lamb has gone a long way.
I'm avoiding spending on food as I may bring some stuff back from the food festival happening locally in Bishop Auckland this weekend. Lets see if this year I can do it justice and get a fair amount of images and videos. Last year I attended on both days. Perhaps I will this year and if I leave in good time on the Sunday I can still make it to the Remembrance service at my church.
I cannot really get anything else in my fridge/freezer but if I stick to jams, drinks and bread etc...I can still come home with something.

hello, I'm glad you had a calm day, I have been thinking of you lately and particularly today.
take care SQ :)
(from a previous forum, hope you remember!)
I haven't forgotten, that's so thoughtful SQ. I owe some e-mails to those I have addy's for and I was thinking just maybe if I am careful, I may risk returning. My very best to you and yours xx
Has it really been 2 years?
I have been trying to understand what 'now' actually means, in the sense that there you are with your loved ones and its 'now' and the future is far away- then suddenly its all history and they are gone.
Sorry rambling.

Jeff, not rambling at all. Time is a strange concept. I hope you are in a better place. We adapt. We have no choice. It is the only thing we probably cannot influence.
I was talking to a neighbour whose Mother I used to talk to in a neighbouring street, I assumed I had not seen her Mother because I did not walk past her house as often as I used to and for a number of years I used a taxi to go to the supermarket and bring the shopping home.
I discovered her Mother has been dead for 8 years! I find that amazing. If you'd asked me I would never have estimated it was that long.
