Well we can get through most things together can't we. From my point of view my mum's death was bitter sweet as she could not go on as she was. She had no quality of life and was in pain so the only thing to do was to get the pain under control and allow her to pass peacefully which is what happened in the end. It's sad and a relief at the same time - it's so wierd!

I know what you're saying Gem. There are two members of my family that passed away where it was bittersweet just like you said. One was seriously ill with bowel cancer and the other had Alzheimers. Sometimes you feel it's better this way, but it doesn't stop you missing them like crazy..
*hugs*

Getting Things Sorted
Well guys, I'm pretty proud of myself today. After a really dodgy start when I thought I was going to have a wasted day, the doctor managed to sign the notification to take to the registrar and I was able to get the death cert etc and get the funeral planned. It's almost all sorted and tomorrow I should be able to get the ball rolling to clear up all Mum's affairs. I still have some people to inform but have to find phone numbers etc.
Foodwise it has been a little strange. I had my breakfast as usual and because of making a quick move at lunchtime to keep an appointment I only had a yogurt for lunch. That was it until tea time. We went into a pub and I had poached salmon, salad and a few chips and ice cream and flake for pudding plus a couple of glasses of wine. I may have got away with it as I missed lunch (fingers crossed).
I'm still feeling wierd - in that funny state of limbo - but that's quite natural at times like this.
Oh by the way, I'm not sure I should be speaking to Elle. She's being naughty x

:character00238: Good morning everyone :character00238:
I seem to be catching up with a lot lost sleep and beginning to feel a little more awake. Another busy day ahead of me today but everything seems to be under control.
Yesterday I had help from my OH who ferried me around everywhere and my lovely daughter who is always so supportive and is missing her gran so much was with us part of the time too.
I'm catching up with the washing as well. Somehow that seems to have mounted up into a huge pile while other things have taken priority. I noticed when I started to run out of clothes!
Well, apparently, according to the news, we have financial melt-down on the way - and I thought my finances had already melted years ago!

morning everyone.
i'm glad you are getting things sorted gem. it's a horrible time to go through and staying in control can help. just don't be surprised when you suddenly lose control though. it does happen. saying that, you are gem. you are wise and will know this already
i didn't realise that i ha'd as much as that, but then i really wanted to put a ha on the end of that sentence so i guess i do hee. how's that. that better?
today is another lazy day. i'm glad for it as my back is really unhappy with the beds we are sleeping in and we have a really hectic day tomorrow. it has swelled to include botanical gardens and butterfly house, ripley's believe it or not, the carlsberg art gallery and museum and then tivoli the theme park in the evening... hopefully we'll get through all that!! ha. (there we go again!!) if not then there's always friday.
i hope everyone is feeling ok this morning? taz? how are you doing honey?

Morning all. Gem, sounds like you had a busy day yesterday but it's to get things all sorted and out of the way. It's great that you have such a supportive family.
Abz, I'm still feeling weird I think it hasn't really sunk in yet.
Gem, I don't think elle is being naughty, I think she has a good point!
