It’s been a busy two weeks
It was the 1st Anniversary of my grandfather’s death 2 weeks ago. Ozzi Pont, Pop, I will always miss you. The miniature roses are blooming at the moment and when I look at them I always feel closer to you.
My Great Aunt passed away last week. Audrey Armstrong, Aunty Audrey, was my favourite great aunt. She was a great role model. I’m really going to miss her.
Mum had her second knee operation last week. She’s out of hospital today, I’m heading down to see her today.
Work was a mad house last week. I did payroll on Monday, had Dementia Training on Tuesday, had a teleconference meeting Wednesday morning, then left straight from that meeting to travel to Macksville to sit on an interview panel (about 1 hour south from Coffs Harbour), Thursday was a meeting in the AM and training in the PM until FINALLY a flex (day off) on Friday. I think for the entire week I did about 5 hours of work on the computer.
Being busy is good but there are times when you just find time just running away from you.

Wow, you have had a busy two weeks Tania.
My heart goes out to you with your family passings. Special people come into our lives to help make us who we are today. Keep your memories close to your heart and they will still be alive in there for you now and in the future.
One of my favourite thoughts is that time seems to have wings which is why we are all such in a hurry and squeezing every ounce of life we can into our day.
I’m glad you have roses as so do I. My thoughts are with you and I’m going out into the sunshine to smell them now.

Thanks Cherie. I have chosen to remember my family with love rather then in sorrow. They both had long and rewarding lives. I cherish that they were a part of my life. I’m buying mum some more roses for her front veranda this Thursday as both a get well present and a reminder of Pop. Using roses to remember my pop is a good thing. I get to watch them grow, enjoy their scent and think of him every time I see him. I hope your roses smell as sweet as mine.
When i was younger, i used to think that it was easier to grieve for our elders, for lots of reasons. I am getting wiser (I hope) as I age. Know there are those who know where you are, and how you feel. You sound as though you have had a hectic fortnight, and I know you did well.. thank you for sharing your life. Stay well, and tell your mum that through your site, strangers are caring for her well-being. Take care, Tania.
