My husband died in my arms on the 2nd May (2009) - what happens now?

We did travel to England last summer and 6 years ago and I do love going there but it won't be for a couple of years now if I could get there.  You can all come to Canada, I would love to have you all here.  Maybe next summer I could manage a trip to Britain though, you never know.   The plane ride is very long but lots of movies and it is fun.

Max is part chocolate lab and part of many other breeds, he is 4 and does keep me going.  I still have my one cat Brandy who is going to be 14 next month and diabetic so needs insulin needles every 12 hours.  He is my cuddler at night.

anytime any of you want to cross the ocean, there is always room for a penguin here.

Hello ladies and Dave,

My can you lot talk!!!  I haven't had my laptop on in a couple of days as I have just been too busy and logged on there and had to read about 10 pages!  Don't believe a word that Lynne says about me talking lots :-)

Well we all seem to be in a good mood and looking forward to next week so that is good.  I was up in Aberdeen on Friday, travelled back yesterday via the shops in Glasgow (I know - don't say a word!) and then was out again last night and got in very late (or early today lol) so I am soooo tired that it isn't even funny now.  My head is just a fog and starting to feel ill with it.  I have drank 2 bottles of lucozade and it is just making me shaky now.  I am definitely getting too old for busy weekends.  Its Ewan's 4th birthday tomorrow so going out for a meal tonight with my family and then I am going to collapse in bed and probably wake up about Wednesday although my insomnia has been really bad this week so great idea but will probably be up all night again.   You will be pleased to hear that I have my mojo back.  On the up!

Speak to you all soon (literally!!!).

Hi Ladies , yes Gayle , i'll join you on the tired front , 5.30 start again is not fun but o'd promised sis i'd help her again . She had to do it this week Ailsa as she has moved to a smaller house and she gives the keys back tommorow so it was our last chance . We got ris of loads and hardley bought anything back , we practically gave things away at the end just so we didn't have to put it back in the car lol but she took 2 of my hand bags and i took a pair of her sandles lol . We had a good laugh doding it even though it was freezing brr . I had also told the kidsi'd still cook lunch as i'm not here next week (yippeeeee) Sue , i thought i saw you sneakin out lol hope you enjoyed it and Helen GYM on a sunday you go girl i hope your review went well .

Lynne sooo brave to do your car bootie but glad it was successful. The gym was ok, couldnt do full programme so back next week but he`s being mean this time!! Told him I want to tone up now and boy he has given me some hard exercises and he hasnt finished yet!! He gave me a big hug though and said how well I was doing, bless him!!

Just in from nice meal but bit tearful when they sang Happy Birthday in the restaurant to Ewan.  But an ok tearful if you know what I mean.  These moments will be all the way throughtout our lives so I suppose better get used to it.
