Hi Gerry, I love you and miss you so very much. I have been in lock down now for 62 days and I am going crazy. I can't see anyone except Darren and Jamie on the door step and keeping meters apart. I have seen Austyn and Violet a few times but they have to stay in the car. We have What;s App videos sometimes and i can see Isabelle, Sienna and Genevieve as well. I want to go out in the car and go s hopping and browse around the shops and meet up with all the family. I want to go out to dinner for a change. I wish with all my heart, body and soul that you were still here. We could be enjoying the free time and privacy for lots of fun now. I am trying to keep busy but it is hard. I need to empty lots of cupboard but cannot find the enthusiasm. I need you here to help me. The family are all doing as well as can be expected but it is hard. Di is okay, a bit depressed like us all, she does not always want to go out for a walk and is very sad of the isolation and the fact that we cannot go our in the car for country walks and family visits. the garden is looking wonderful. You made such a wonderful job of landscaping it and making it so coulorfu,l packed with flowers and perfumes. I sit in the garden most days when it is warm enough. I sit and read or do my cross stitch. You bought me the teddy bears several Christmases ago and I have only just got around to doing them. The death toll is still massively high. over 50,000 in this country since it began and massive amounts around the world. It is a deadly disease which cannot be seen and passes very quickly via droplets of human fluids. It is supposedly going to be around for ever, and until a vaccine is invented nobody is safe from it. The world is a very different place since this has begun and the whole world is affected and falling apart. I wish you were here, I need you, and am finding it very hard and depressing to be here alone. I cannot wait to be in your loving arms again forever and always. I am sure the world you are now in is much better than this one. I certainly hope so. I hope you are happy, loved and free. Restored to full health and vitality and are having the most wonderful, glorious new life doing everything your heart desiers. Until we meet again, please always remember, that I always have and always will lover you with all my heart body and soul forever and always. All my love forever and always, Maggie XxX
