Merry Christmas My Darling Gerry, I love and miss you so very much. It's Christmas eve and all the presents are wrapped and ready to deliver tomorrow. I am going to do a doorstep drop off at Jamie's, and then spend the rest of the day at Darren's. I am very sad and thinking of you all the time. We always loved Christmas together and got very excited. We always made love under the Christmas tree, and kissed under the mistletoe. I have not put up many decorations just a few bits of tinsel and few ornaments, the stockings and the animations. I cannot face anymore again this year as it is so very painful being here without you. I will come back tomorrow and sit by the fire with Di and think of you and all our happy Christmases together whilst toasting you with a whisky. Then I shall be alone again for the foreseeable future. The Covid infection is getting out of hand again, and there are now two more strains of it. We are getting nearly 40,000 new cases a day in England and the death rate is nearly 700 people a day. We have been put back into a higher tier starting on Boxing day. This means we cannot go out unless for food, medication or dog walks. I cannot see anyone and have to rely on the telephone for company. The future looks very bleak for everyone. I hope you are happy, loved, back to full health and vitality. I hope you have all the friends and family you desire with you, and that you can do anything your heart desires. I hope you are playing your drums in a great band and having some great parties. I hope you received my love and treasure it, as I do yours. I hope to see you in my dreams again soon. Until we meet again , have a great and Happy Christmas and New Year. I will update you on Boxing Day. Please always remember that I always have, and always will , love you forever and always. I can't wait to be in your arms again and see your happy smiling cheeky face again. All my love forever and always, Maggie XxX
