25

If it had been meant to be other than a fleeting visit, our son John Robert would have turned 25 today. It feels like a milestone that I wish to commemorate. G and I are currently apart but he sent me these beautiful flowers, and so I have shared them here.

The trouble with traveling light as far as this house is concerned is that I don't have a vase (or three!). I have put the word out and in the meantime the bouquet is residing happily in a pan of water!

Back in the brutal world of business, it has been a super stressful day. I am going to lose myself in a few (Kindle) pages of crime fiction now. Good night x
