The long dark tea-time of the soul

Saturday.
My last Saturday on my own with Willow before I go back to work next week. 
It feels like a lifetime ago since I last went, and so much for me has changed. 
I took the rubbish out to the bin and was talking to Denise who was shocked that I was walking without my stick, it's not far to the bins, but like she said a couple of months ago that would have been impossible. I am very proud of hard I've worked to get back on my feet. 
I had a card making day. I dug out some old clear stamps and made a couple. 
Chatting online to Karen while I did so, I shall miss that just as much as having Willow around. Both of them have been good company while I've been stuck at home and it's helped a lot. When you think back to the first weeks when I had to be left with everything to hand, to being able to just about potter to the bathroom and kitchen, to now be able to virtually do everything like before ( albeit at a slower pace) 
When Kev got home a bit grumpy as he always is after a day at work, we watched the Queens grandkids do the Princes Vigil, and another episode of The Umbrella Factory.

  1. Lovely Cards...( Of Course x)
    Pleased you are back to work but will miss you when I come on as I love seeing your dyalog pages.
    I thought the Grandchildren's Vigil was heartbreaking. The tears came and I couldn't stop them.
    Then when Zara tripped on the stairs I thought we were going to see her go flying!
