Larry for this blip tonight, in memory of my mummy & this time last year she was admitted to Barnstaple hospital, not yet diagnosed, but the ordeal started then. The innocent x ray where we thought she'd have, find nothing & then go home again, turned into a living hell, which got worse the more the weeks went by, to her major neck operation in Exeter, then the recovery, then to the last months of her life where she had her final big push of life, love, shopping & laughter, ending with her hopeful recovery from a lung infection which basically finished her off. If I look at it through stages or if I see it as a whole, it doesn't make any of it better. And I miss her every single day, I miss her company, but most of all I miss her love.

She loved Larry, but then, don't we all? I don't think I could have coped as well if I didn't have him to photograph & coo coo over! Here he is again:

Bringer of light

I've been in my studio most of the day, painting xmas decorations & pendant backs, I'm doing a craft fair beginning of December (& it's 75% influenced by Larry), my first ever one... I'm somewhat scared! xxxx
