Missing Gran

Gran & Anna 2Yesterday I had a very boring day and felt unbelievably unsettled and lonely. Just one of those days I guess.

I had nothing essential that I had to do so I went to the gym and spent the afternoon baking cakes for Greenbelt. But my discontent and restlessness did not pass. I drank wine and that just made things worse and no matter what I did I could not settle.

Yesterday would also have been Gran Nora’s 93rd birthday. I am missing her very much at the moment. Maybe that contributed to me feeling a little bit at sea. I don’t know. All I know is that I wish I could spend some time with her again.

    Virtual hugs are no substitute for real ones – but here’s one anyway (((( )))) Hope today is better.

    I love this photo of you and your grandmother. I only know her from you, your family, a few letters and the home she inhabited for many decades. Thank you for sharing her with me. She was an extraordinary woman. The way you live your life with such passion and integrity may be the greatest tribute you can give you.

    A virtual hug from me too. Real one to follow at Greenbelt.

    I love this picture too… I love the way I am looking directly at the camera with my hand just resting on Gran’s leg. I think I look peaceful. And Gran’s expression is amazing too… I adore it!

    Ps) Peterson… this was taken on the wall at Gran’s house… like pretty much all my favourite photos!
