So sorry! Some memories do hurt, as this must, too.
Still, you did have a good time with her just before you left, and that's really something to be happy about.
I am sorry for your loss. What a beautifully vivid image of a beautiful person in your life! Taking a "mind photograph" is something I have done before, too.
I've been banned from ladders too. In 2021 I fell off a ladder 11 steps down, broke both of my feet painting the trim on our house before we sold it. I made the move to Las Vegas with my feet in air casts and crutches.
I would outsource window washing at this point, the list may grow as I age.
Yes, I agree.
I've let go of many things, but only after bugging myself for a few minutes or so. Yes, letting go helps most of the time, within reason.
And I remember that case. That is something I can't wrap my mind around, though. That man must have been a saint.
I, too, am very reluctant to ask for help. My sons, especially the younger one, are always ready to help, but I don't ask them unless they ask me if I need this or that to be taken care of.
I hope your daughter heals and feels a lot better so you won't have to worry so much. I can see how difficult it is to be a parent especially in your case. Hang in there!
Write about one (or more) of your creative idols. Who do you look up to? Whose work are you most inspired by? Why?
Welcome back everyone. April just whipped on by as usual. It’s good to be back.
I haven’t any real idols, no author whose next book I hang out for. There is one singer songwriter I really love to listen to though, Australian, Tim Minchin. He wrote the music for Matilda, the musical.
He is everything I admire, a family man who has kept his feet on the ground. He’s a wonderful musician, a comedian, singer and songwriter. He’s someone I would willingly pay good money to see in a live venue.
I follow Michael McIntyre the comedian. I’ve mentioned him in my blog before. He’s hilariously funny. I do love people who make me laugh.
I’m just watching Rocket Man the life story of Elton John. What talent he had and what a journey he had, giving pleasure to millions of people all around the world. You have to admire that, surely?
