Friday 5 March 2010: Forever Blowing Bubbles

The Muv-in-Law died today .. . I feel so relieved for her that it's over.



Sally handled her dying so well I am full of admiration.
As a Mother-in Law she was perfect, non-interfering and always easy to talk too. NEVER malicious.


A strange mix of feelings,




Shy coping very well sad but philosphical and of course our children are being superb.



As for Archie he hasn't a clue and was a VERY welcome distraction today :)

17. I popped over here because I realised that I've not seen nor commented on your blips for ages. And so have seen your sad news. Sounds like you will miss her very much. It must be some comfort for you to feel that she handled her dying well.
