The Last Cake (for a while)

Upside down dinner tonight with a very fine cake and some very fine fizz to celebrate TallGirl skipping out of the house tomorrow without a backward glance.

Work was mad busy today, right up until dinner (cake) time, distracting me nicely from the lump in my throat edge of tears feelings that now threaten to overwhelm me.

I know it’s natural and normal and the order of things, but this is not how I imagined it and with quarantine I don’t know when we’ll see her again. Hurrah for zoom, I suppose.
