Megan

The first part of my blip dedicated to Megan today. I hope she realises how proud I am of her, and how much I love her.

I forced myself out to walk with Dog this morning and when I got home, waiting for me was a parcel. The image is not just a photo of B as a boy, it is a photo book. Created by Meg, ‘for us all’ but I am to be the ‘keeper’! So beautifully laid out, with photos of each of us with B. I cried! And I’ve looked at it several times today. On top of that she passed her swimming exam, swimming three lengths fully clothed! She has just one week and two more exams to go. 

The day itself has been in kind of waves. Work emails constant, with  a crescendo at the end of the day when the printers weren’t sure they could meet the deadline. And they’re costing a small fortune! The lurgy is now like a full head cold with chesty cough, although that seems to have eased a bit this evening. 

This morning on Facebook I saw a post On a local page about a small group of ‘widows’ that had met over the bank holiday weekend for the first time. I messaged the lady, and I have now been added to a WhatsApp group. I did say I wasn’t sure if I wanted this kind of thing yet, but there’s an appeal to the idea of other people who really do understand!  Hoping they’re not too prolific in their messaging!
