You have the best day too. Christine will be by your side.

If I was mobile enough it’s just what I would want to do. I always loved helping others. My last job was on a technical software support desk. I loved it. Unfortunately my bosses didn’t love me and were trying to get rid of all their older employees.

Yes, thank you @Braztash56. I managed to go to the crematorium, felt very emotional but did it! The grounds are massive and I sat by a small pool for quite a while, reflecting on my life really with my parents and grandparents whose ashes are there. I asked them to take care of Richard until we are all together again. When I left, I felt more lonelier than ever. I then had lunch with a friend.
I hope you had a good day at the Centre. x

My lovely brother has just sent me an e mail. He and his wife are going to drive 4 hours next Saturday to come and visit me for a few hours and then drive home. He wants to know if I need anything done. We didn’t used to be that close as children. Xx

Sorry didn’t see your last post. It sound a very emotional and yet also possibly cathartic day.
So many memories came flooding back. We always enjoyed our birthdays and it made me think of past ones, as it was my Father’s today. I am very glad I went but the tears have started again. It’s my mother’s next month, so I will go again.
I hope you have a better night having had such nice news. x
I would have been amazed if you weren’t tearful. I have had a few tears today. It just washes over you. My brother and his wife are even going to bring lunch. I would like to see my sister in law whilst she is still feeling well as with the chemo we don’t know how long she has.
Xx
It sounds to me as though the timing of their visit is perfect for all of you.
I was hoping I could see my brother tonight but he had made arrangement to go out. I think I shall have a very early night as I feel very alone and sad.

Wow, you have a cracking match with Man City. There’s going to be more reminders to hit me with the new season, Richard loved football and as he became more immobile, he watched it all.

So pleased you enjoyed the game. My husband would be enjoying the start of the new season, following the games today. Makes me feel so sad he isn’t watching Soccer Saturday.
Yes, my lovely neighbour has invited me to have a cuppa with her this afternoon. She is just home from a month with her family in the US, so I’m looking forward to hearing all about it. She has been a great tower of strength to me.
Lunch with my brother tomorrow.
Have you plans?
