Hi Gerry, I love and miss you so very much.
Its the 8th August today and the weather is still lousy. Jamie went to Camber sands last week with his family for a holiday and Darren is away at the moment in Sandford park with his family. Both family are having a wonderful time in spite of the weather. I cant go away at the moment as Di is not fit enough to be left with anyone. She is still having lots of toilet accident's, her eyes are still very bad and she is not eating much. She is utterly exhausted and sleeps most of the time. It quite heartbreaking seeing her like this, but as she is still able to get around and she is wagging her tail and is very affectionate I cannot bring myself to have her put down. She still has life in her yet. She loves her treats at night and likes lots of cuddles.
I forgot to tell you that i also bought a replacement Tickled Pink rose bush on you anniversary. The one that Tony and Joan bought you died and I have only just got around to replacing it.
Karl's funeral was two weeks ago and it was a very sad occasion. He was just 52. I hope you have had a chance to meet him and have great times together. He was always happy and bubbly, just like you.
I am struggling at the moment. The boys are busy with their families and the weather is lousy. I have been suffering with fibromyalgia a lot recently and i have decided to take it steady for a while until it gets better.
I have made a new friend from the Rock Choir. We go out together sometimes, Last week we went to the Miller and Carter steak house for an evening meal. She is great company, and she is inspiring me to get out and about a lot more. She also lost her husband but he would have been in his early 90's.
I have done all I can do in the garden for the moment. The weeds are growing like wild fire as the rain never stops.
The solar panels have not produced much this summer due to the lousy weather. When its not raining we have lots of cloudy skies.
I hope all is well in your world and that you are having the most wonderful new life. I can't wait to be in your loving arms again. I see you in my dreams sometimes and its wonderful to be with you again. Your butterfly comes most days to sit with me now. It's wonderful to see you and spend quality time together. I am so pleased and proud that you still want to come home and be with me and Di again. Please never stop coming , it means the world to me.
I have tried to do some decanting and cleaning in the house. Unfortunalty, every time I touch something I seem to break it. I tried to clean the grandfather clock the other night and a glass shelf fell down and broke four of our bird ornaments. I managed to glue them back together again as best as i could. One of the chains on the weights broke off and i have tried to fix it.
Jamie has just rung. He has been doing a summer school at BIMM and tomorrow he is going to Reading to pick up guitars and amps and then going on to Derby music festival, where he will be demonstrating guitars and doing interview. He never stops working.
I don't have much more news now so i will sign off now.
Please always remember that I always have, and always and always will, love you forever and always.
All my love forever and always,
Maggie XxX
