Thanks @Former-Member & @Owlunar
Been quiet at home but no computer. Gardening singing and doing griefwork. Decided in the end not to go to funeral. I was not really well enough and it would have been a dreadful stress. It was the best self care for me and son. I will be singing a requiem on Saturday and will offer it up for lil bro.
Gotta go to a vollie dinner. Hope computer issues are resolved and I can post a bit more, but I am alright and hope you guys are too.
Love Apple

So good to hear from you Appleblossom, i've been really concerned for you since that clinging spirit picture. Its so hard. I've lost a couple very close rel, hubby, lose friend (to suicide). I so know how it comes back each time, and anniversaries are hard. You 're teaching me so much about self care - thank you. All the best for Saturday - "Holding you in the light" 🌿Lapses

I am thinking of my being the old wise Pixar Owl as my role here - I don't think I am the only oldie - but who cares really - which I like is the wisdom that just grows and grows with my life

Hi @Appleblossom
What a bad time not to have your computer - I am sorry about that
You know yourself well enough to know whether you should go to a funeral - probably better that you didn't - they can be hard work
I am sorry for your loss - I know those are pathetic words really - I wish there were better ones
But I care
