It’s been a long day, a three hundred and seventy odd miles round trip. Left home at 9am and 8.15pm return.
We lost a very dear friend in this last fortnight. Today was his funeral and we had to travel to Devon to attend. It was a long day, a sad day and also a celebration of our dear friends life. His coffin entered to Tina Turners Simply the best, we were invited to sing Westlife’s You lift me up and There is a green hill far away (Hymn) and after two very poignant eluegies he left us to Always look on the bright side of life. Which sums him up perfectly.
So that’s why I have not posted or hardly commented today it’s not that I am ignoring you guys I have just been otherwise involved. Hopefully I will be back tomorrow. Love to you all. I am so tired I am off to bed. Normal service resumes tomorrow.π

Holding sacred space for you, Willow. I send you love and hugs and pray you are surrounded by love and caring.
Feb 27, 2020 @ 22:13:17
Thank you Maggie thank you for your love and kind words , I appreciate them π
Feb 27, 2020 @ 23:29:00
Iβm sorry for your loss Willow and can appreciate the journey. It was a round trip of over 500 miles to visit my Mum in Poole and we had to do that in a day.
Rest up and give yourself time to recover from the trip. β€ β€ β€
Feb 27, 2020 @ 22:56:12
Gosh! Five hundred miles that’s quiet a feat . Thank you for your kind words, I am worn out and hopefully be sleeping soon ππ
Feb 28, 2020 @ 14:08:47
It was 270 miles each way for a couple of hours or so with my Mum, precious time well spent, but a gruelling journey. My sister had no idea of distance or time as sheβd never made the journey, yet expected us to visit frequently as if we were just round the corner. Ironically when we did live round the corner (7 miles) she never visited us once!
Feb 28, 2020 @ 14:19:01
I completely understand, families wear you out . We get it all to carry with Alan’s Mum though we are the furthest away. Bless you π
Feb 28, 2020 @ 14:41:01
I wish Bro were closer, but I’ll be calling him this weekend to touch base. I have little contact from OB and my sister now, which is OK with me anyway.
Feb 28, 2020 @ 14:51:50
I repeat Family….ππ
Feb 28, 2020 @ 01:24:18
Very sorrow for your loss. It is so sad. Funerals and eulogies are always moving, emotional and bring out a flood of tears. I bet you are tired physically and emotionally.
Beautiful song and graphics.

Thank you it was a long sad but beautiful day π
Feb 28, 2020 @ 01:35:54
So sorry for your loss, Willow. It’s not easy to lose a friend.

No it never is, is it. Thank you for your kind thoughts. Have a good vacation. πππ

Funerals are very emotionally draining, Willow.

The loss of a friend is always difficult to deal with. May you rejoice in the friendship you had for such a long time. Peace and blessings always, Anne
Mar 05, 2020 @ 06:18:53
Thank you Anne, loss is always hard all webcam do is rejoice that we knew them π
Mar 08, 2020 @ 21:32:14
You too! Hugs and blessings always, Anne

Thank you Anne and blessings to you always too π
Mar 08, 2020 @ 22:11:30
I know. I have lost a number of really good friends over the years. It never gets easy just as losing a pet is never easy even if you have or get other ones. But we benefited from the time we did know and have them in our lives, all of them. Hugs and blessings, Anne always

Thank you I am so grateful ππΉ
