Hi Gerry, I love and miss you so very much. Thank you for listening to me and coming to visit me today as your butterfly. I am so pleased and excited that you were able to come and sit with me for a while. I needed to see you again before the winter arrives. I have not seen you many times this year and I was getting anxious that you have left me. I love to see you and radiate my love, comfort, and healing to you. I managed to get Di out in the garden for you to see. Di is improving in leaps and bounds now. She is eating almost normally now. She always goes outside for a wee. Unfortunate, she was not going out in the back garden as she is frightened she will fall again. She did manage it by herself this morning. I scolded her last night for crapping in the hall again. She does this quite often now and it is getting to be too much of a habit. I have decided that i must concentrate on getting her into the back garden as often as possible now. I babysat for Austyn and Violet last Thursday. I had to take them to their swimming class. They are utterly amazing swimmers, so strong and confident. You would be really proud of them. I think Austyn might end up being a professional swimmer. He loves swimming so much. He says it is his favorite hobby and he wants to be a marine biologist when he grows up. Violet has almost caught up with Austyn's swimming level. She is in the same group as him now. Isabelle is supposed to be coming to see Di this weekend. She has not turned up yet though. Last Saturday we went to Jamie's flying lesson. The same place that you went to at Clench Farm. He flew in the closed plane as he said he would feel more secure. We had to wait an extra 45 minutes for the clouds to clear before he could take of. He thoroughly enjoyed it as you always did. I thought of you all the time while we were there. It turned out to be a nice sunny afternoon. Only Isabelle and I went to watch. Then on the way home we stopped for a nice meal at the New Inn just past Avebury. We could not go to the Castle and Ball in Marlborough because it was Marlborough Mop and the high street was closed.Then we came home and Isabelle played with Di for a couple of hours. She absoultly loves Di, and was supposed to come over to play with her this weekend. It is getting quite autumnal now. The clocks will soon change and we well be into the dark nights.. I am dreading the winter even more this year. The gas and electric bills are due to sore to unprecedented levels this year. In fact life is not the same anymore since Covid. Everything is getting so expensive now and some things are impossible to get hold o . It is expected to be a bleak Christmas again this year. I had an estate agent around the other day to value the house, just out of interest. Richard James was disappointing. They only valued it at £350.000-£375.000. I got another one around from Yopa. She was extremely impressed by the house. She loved everything you had done to it. She valued the house at £450.000-475.000. I know you will be chuffed to bits with that knowing our house is now worth nearly half a million pounds. Of course I am not going to sell it, I could not imagine living anywhere but in our beautiful home. You are everywhere in it, and I need you close to me at all times. Our beautiful memories of being here together are what keeps me going. I don't have much more news now. I did go to Tetbury hospital last week about my ears, nose and throat. I was checked over and told that there is nothing sinister going on. I was just prescribed some antibiotics and some nasal drops. Until we meet again. I hope you are happy, loved and returned to full health and vitality. I hope you are having lots of fun and doing everything your heart desires. Please always remember that I always have and always will, love you forever and always. I can't wait to be in your loving arms again. All my love forever and always, Maggie XxX
