Three and a half years since he died, but Christmas feels so hard ..

Lucky 💐🫂

So sorry Luckygirl sending love and hugs your way.

Thank you for kind words.

Dempie55 - I am sorry you are spending Christmas on your own, but hope you can settle in and have a comfortable day doing whatever you enjoy. I do know what you mean about rubbish weather - it seems to be never-ending - the wind here is so strong that I cannot walk down the path. Roll on spring.

Just over 3 years for me, but this is the first Christmas I am spending completely alone, as my AC are going to in-laws. I’m OK with it, but I expect to shed a few tears on Christmas Day! I too, just want it to be over so I can get back to my normal routine with all my groups running again. I know exactly what you mean about plodding through “normal” life! It’s the vast expanse of time to fill up when the weather’s rubbish that’s the problem!

So sorry Luckygirl - I find this time of year very stressful. I’ve just the las 90 minutes wrapping presents and my shoulders ache …

So sorry to read how sad you feel. Hopefully you’ll be with family/friends on the Day. Warm wishes x

So sorry Luckygirl3. Best Wishes to you .. and a hug xx

I too am so sorry. It’s very difficult when your last memory of a loved one is not a happy one. People say that in time you just remember the best memories - after almost a quarter of a century I’m still waiting for that to happen, and I know it won’t whilst I still have a functioning memory. This is a very difficult time of year, as is New Year. You are not alone in looking forward to it all being over, whilst trying not to show it. We put on a show but normal life is indeed something to look forward to. 💐

I'm so sorry Luckygirl and hope that at some point your memories of all the wonderful years you spent together will, push these upsetting ones to the back of your mind .
