One of those days.....


.....a bit like life. Today its hubby's birthday, but.....it was also his Aunt's funeral. I was also lucky to win a runner up prize of Romantic homes magazine. It was kindly sent by Alison at Vintage Amythest. I shall save it for the weekend, something cheery. Tomorrow there is also another funeral. The mother of my daughters internet friend, so sad as she left three children. My heart goes out to them.

We shall go out for a meal later and I've told hubby we can go out at the weekend, we don't need an excuse for a curry and a few drinks but I do think we'll be raising a glass and toasting those lives and deaths that have touched us recently.

So sorry to hear your sad news, a friend of mine has recently been diagnosed with cancer and so has a friend of my Mums...it makes us all realise how fragile life can be. On a happier note Happy Birthday to your hubby and I hope you enjoy your weekend. Take care.
