Hi Gerry, I love and miss you so very much. I wish with all my heart, body and soul that you were still here.
Life here is getting more miserable by the minute
The whole country is now on full lock-down again for another month. The disease is spreading rapidly and the death toll is around 500 a day from it in this country. We are also on high alert for terrorist attacks. Another good reason to stay at home.
We can only go outside for dog walking, exercise or food and medication shopping. It is bitterly cold and, lonely and empty here without you. Di is alright but suffering with her painful arthritic legs, so I am not taking her out much now.
It was firework night last night and she is frantic most evening during firework season, hopefully it will be all over so.
Sienna has just had her 7th birthday. We bought her a lovely burgundy corduroy skirt and warm pretty jumper. we also got her some Lego, and put some money into her bank account. She is fascinated by you, and has asked Jamie to photograph all your paintings, murals and canal art and sign writing. She can't come to the house to see it herself and is desperately wanting to have a sleep over and view all our family videos.
Christmas is getting near and all the shops are shut. I had to go out and buy a huge shop to last for several weeks. before the lock-down came into force. I am shopping on line now for everything. I am spending a fortune on the grandchildren.
I have just got Geoff to fix the bathroom toilet. It would not flush properly and the handle had broke. Darren had just finished recording the cine films, ready to download onto a DVD for me.
I have got to go out next week and get a new tyre fitted before the delayed MOT and service. I also need to get a top up of antifreeze.
I can't see Jamienow for another month, but I can still see Darren as I am in his bubble.
The US elections have just taken place and it looks like Donald Trump may have lost the election, which we all sincerely hope he has. I am so glad we do not live in the USA as it is very violent at the moment, and anything can happen.
I don't have much more new at the moment. I am sure that wherever you are it is a much nicer world that this.
I hope you are fit, well and happy, doing whatever your heart desires. I hope you come home as often as you wish to be with us, especially me and Di.
Until we meet again please always remember that I always have and always will love you forever and always. I can't wait to be re-united with you and be in your loving arms again.
All my love forever and always,
Maggie XxX
