Hello there.
If anyone can suggest a good licensed rubbish man with a van I would be most grateful.
The garden is filling up with too much for little old me to get rid of. But also someone reasonably priced 😌.

Hello friends.

I wasn’t going to post because Ive been feeling very low. Then I thought this little old cake page has become a bit of a comfort to me. A way of getting things out that are stuck in my head. Uplifting and not so.
Yesterday I couldn’t have wrote anything. I felt so desperately heartbroken and helpless. I couldn’t think straight.
I love the little cottage, it’s so peaceful but I have so much to do. My helpers are wonderful and I don’t know what I would do without them but they have their own families and jobs so when I’m alone trying to unpack boxes, paint, clean, put things in the loft, sort the garden and just all of the things you have to do when you move in somewhere new. It hit me in the face as I was trying to put a heavy box in the loft. Andrew would normally be here to help me. Silly little things like ripping the empty boxes up without me even realising and sticking rubbish on the van but I’m alone. It’s the worst feeling and I battle so much to keep it out of my head but it wasn’t having any of it yesterday. I felt broken.
I’ve been through so much over the past year and other things nobody has a clue about the year before. But I put my face on and I smile.

It’s only a matter of time before it all catches up.

Isobel god love her, sat with me all day. Brought me a bag of groceries and flowers. Stayed until 9 last night. She hasn’t been well with her blood pressure. Dr thinks the baby will have to come three weeks before her due date. All of these things I would talk to her dad about.

I am grateful for everything I have but I’m also angry at the moment.
Andrews first year anniversary is fast approaching at the end of august. I just can’t believe it’s nearly a year since I’ve held his hand.

Isobel bought me the beautiful geranium and I planted a new house plant.

Sorry it’s a bit of a glum post x see you on the other side 💛

I got it in my mind to make my own all purpose cleaner. Sorry about the bottle and the signage. I’m working on that part but it smells lovely and the little table I keep polishing looks lovely and clean.

Hello friends.

I decided to put my old Laura Ashley living room curtains up at my little bedroom window. I had bought some B & Q green wood garden but instantly hated them when up. I don’t know why I bought them really but who knows if I’m of sane mind.
I found some lovely quality cotton stripe fabric to make my little washing machine curtain. I’m going for an apothecary style kitchen. A little practical magic style so I can dance around with a margarita singing The lime and the coconut. Ha ha oh lord what will all of the sweet older neighbours make of me. You never know they might join in. I’ve gone off tangent again haven’t I.
So im painting again today basically. 

You will be surprised when you see the kitchen wall colour. It’s very not me 🤍. But it will all work wonderfully. I think 😁.

My mind and heart is struggling as the end of the month seems to be rolling towards us faster than ever. A year without my best friend and confidant. The one who lay next to me at the end of the day, putting the world to right. Laughing at my silly impressions and then not being able to sleep. I won’t lie. It’s so bloody lonely without him. Sometimes the silence is deafening. I talk to him constantly but there’s no , yes I know love or I disagree.
I just miss him so much. More than I could ever put into words. He was my And.

Anyway she says trying to see. I’m not just sharing too much 🙈. I’m looking for this bloody book deal or something! Interior designer may be. One of those widowed influences. A girl can try can’t she. But for now, I’m just catching my breath and sharing some nice things along with feelings that could help other people. It’s okay to shout you miss someone who has been such a huge part of your life. 

Love your people.

Hello lovely friends. Just a little picture house update. Today my green chair Andrew and I used to sit and hold hands in all last year arrived back to where it should be. The little room is just about done.

My daughter in law put my sign up!! Yes 💕

Sitting here with bud, while Ted wanders in and out of the patio. Watching the clouds and the trees blowing in the wind. There’s a change in the air. I can feel it.

Found a mobility scooter in the shed out the front.
Flew around to Asda ( not on the scooter!🙈) there was a lettuce for 30p and the last of the cooked chicken on the hot oven bit, £2. I knew I had a potato at home so quick tea and feet up. I’m shattered.
It’s amazing what you can do on a budget.

Candles on for my darling.

Take care everyone 💛

I have a few items for sale.

Mincer never used £10
Lovely heavy mirror £15
Desk lamp never used £10

I’ve popped on market place but just incase anyone might of wanted on here.

I have a box of heavy bits ideal for a car boot but I’ve hurt my back and stomach so can’t lift them 😔. They can stay in spare room for now.
I’ll post soon.

Both curtains up. Ready to put my pictures up. Perfect for my little golden picture house. Let the movies begin. 💛

Hello lovely friends.

Well I managed to get my flop curtains. They reminded me of a little French cottage. No idea why but they do and I love them. Andrew would be saying they’re too long and I would laugh and say I like them like that. This would go on for a while until he forgot but then remembered and it would start again.
After a difficult week and a pretty exhausting few weeks I felt like putting a floppy hat on( there’s a theme here!) My lovely daughter Isobel had popped over for a cuppa. Mama let me get a pic of you in your little garden so a wafted my apron and click 🙊. We found out what the little bambino is 💕💕💕💕💕 another little girl to join the gang. My heart is so confused at being thrilled and excited to open my arms to a new grandchild but also broken at not being able to share the joy with Andrew.
But it is the most beautiful gift.
I had a bit of a breakdown with red tape stuff yesterday but Isobel jumped to my rescue 💛

Took the not so little four out to The happy rooms in the Town hall. Love listening to all their chatter. Lots of Nanas and grandads together. It always makes it more apparent I’m alone. I get so tired these days. The girls remind me of how much I’ve gone and am going through. Good job Elizabeth and Sophie came to fix my bed after work. They’re my little handy women angels 💛.

They all sneak food in pretending they haven’t to try and fatten me up some more 🙊I think.
Their pops would be so happy knowing that they take care of me.
I’ll get stronger. I’m getting there. It’s just been such a shock to my mind and body.
No day is the same without your partner and best friend.

I did get a lovely present sent yesterday off a friend I don’t get to see a lot because she lives off in the Peak District. She wanted to make me a film poster about my new chapter and our love story for the little picture house. And was worried it might upset me. I admit I would prefer to stay in the old chapter with Andrew and she knows that. It’s her way of saying you’ve got this and we are right behind you 💛.

Anyway I’ll sign off for now and give greta Garbo some more bird food before her wings don’t flap off trying to get my attention.

Have a lovely day enjoying all of the tiny miracle moments 💛
