Far and Away

Hi @Former-Member .... 😊

Thanks @Faith-and-Hope, how's your adventure going? Is there a particular thread your putting updates? Jetlag takes about a week to settle I'm told, and I'm sure there's son Celtic wisdom to get over your post viral fatigue How's WH coping with his obcessive routines while travelling? A challenge I would think 😕 Hope this is a time yo rekindle some first love maybe.
Any good churches to visit there? Did you go this morning? Love ancient architecture and history. Churches are great for it. Hugz xox

Hadn't thought to start a new thread ....

In transit again today and have to go again now .... found a brief moment with wifi .... will catch you later and answer the above.

Hi to everyone else .... 👋🏽💗💕

Re: Far and Away

No doubt it is right now @Former-Member You don't just 'get over' or 'move on' from your loss - it hits every part of you and nothing feels real Hon. I feel as though you have made your decision not to go so please ask if it can be live streamed - especially with COVID and restrictions it is worth asking. It doesn't take much to set up and the funeral home can do it for you - they have no doubt done many of them over the last year or so. You can also honour your Mum in your own way - light a candle, buy a plant, make a memory book - whatever it is that you can do to keep those happy memories in your heart and mind. You Mum may be gone but you can never forget who she was ...and I know not all of those memories are good ones but find those in amongst everything and celebrate them.

Re: Far and Away

💖💞💐🌷 @Former-Member ..... I agree with everything @Zoe7 just said. Funerals have been live-streamed for Covid ..... and there are a lot of private ways to honour your Mum.

If you wanted to you could ask the misinster to read out a short " @Former-Member @was unable to make it in person today, so she is attending by live-stream, but here is a special poem / song / photo she has contributed to the service" ..... if that is what you need to support your self-esteem. It's just one option @Former-Member. It is confusing and distressful, but something is likely to settle with you about what you want to do ......

Day unexpectedly full with legal stuff today @Snowie @Zoe7. I have made my way through it, but feel a bit rolled ....,

Planning a movie with dinner here with D2, then a bath with a bath fizz-ball I found while cleaning up the cupboard.

Gahhhhh ...... but getting closer. Divorce hearing coming up shortly.
