Special Days in April

[mariana44]

Today is 6 years since George died--also on a Sunday---which makes it all a bit surreal today. I cannot tell you how quickly the last 6 years have gone , it seems like just a very short while ago. My sister reminded me that she and her husband had come over that day to see George--but I had no recollection of that.

Luckily I had a friend take me out for lunch at our Local Organic Garden Centre in Yalding--[about 5 miles away], and we had a nice lunch, and a sit out in the garden--it was beautuful ----so hot--I am sure that I caught a bit of sun !! A perfect day for George, because he LOVED the sun !!!

You have some lovely memories of George Marian. We are thinking of you.

[mariana44]

Thanks Marian--yes, it is always a comfort to remember the good times.

Thinking of you today Marian.

Thanks John--i'm always glad when this day is over--which it nearly is--just going to settle down to listen to David Jacobs--I could be fast asleep in 10 minutes or so.

Mariana, although I am new to the board and don't really know everyone quite yet, reading the posts, I do hope today wasn't as sad as it was then. Just think that George is and always is watching down upon you and you're never alone. I know that's easy to say, but I'm a strong believer in it. Please always keep a smile on your face and a song in your heart.

Eman-thank you so much for your words of comfort--I joined this Forum just a few months after I lost George, and my friends on here have helped me though some difficult times--although they did not always realise.

I try to keep cheerful, and it does become easier over time--just certain days are harder. I bought 2 little dogs who are now nearly 6 years old, and they are a lifeline for me--such good company and so funny at times.

You're welcome Mariana and if I may, here's a big virtual hug to you! Just remember to keep a song in your heart and keep singing as I'm sure George can hear you!!

[Lena & Harry Smith]

And the same goes from us too Marian, and you know that you are on the right forum here to help you to keep "A Song In Your Heart "

[mariana44]

Hi Harry and Lena--yes I do know that--that is one of the many reasons that I love this Forum, and all the lovely people on here.

And Eman-thank you for my Virtual Hug-it is so good to be among so many caring friends.

It would have been my lovely Mum's birthday today. Had she lived, she would have been 102. I'll always miss her.

[mariana44]

I know how you feel, Marian--my mum's birthday was yesterday-she would have been 97.

Thinking of you both Marian and Marian.

[Marian]

Thank you John. You are such a caring young man. Very much appreciated.

[Lena & Harry Smith]
