after a long and diffficult day I am back home and off to bed. Went to see dad before I went to mum and had a good old blub on my own which kind of helped me cope with the rest of the day.
Thank you all for your birthday messages and e mails of support today, they mean much to me..we may never meet but I consider myself very blessed to have so many very kind and caring cyber friends...
Feeling drained and tired so hopefully will sleep more soundly now today has come to an end; my first big hurdle since losing dad...
so nghty night dear friends..perchance to dream...xxx
Night night Minty. I didn't see a Birthday thread for you earlier so belated wishes although I know its been a very difficult time for you. Here's to a more contented 2016 for you. X
The first few events are the worst then it gets a little more tolerable. One day you will think of your Dad and instead of crying you will just smile. Sleep tight and don't let the bed mites bite.

Yes Prudie I did put one on of sorts, although it was hard to wish Minty a happy birthday so we were all thinking of her
Glad you got through the day Minty - the first Christmas is the worst. I went to the cemetery today to take some lovely flowers for Mum who died last year. It still seems strange not to have her sitting there at Christmas lunch with us two and then watching the Queen on TV - she loved seeing her.
