Just a quick update. I'm back, sort of. The funeral service was awful and beautiful. weemonkey6 did such a fantastic job singing Hear You Me at the end that I doubt there were many dry eyes in the place. I know mine weren't, and really I had maintained quite well until then. But the weather! A "Hollywood funeral" weemonkey6 called it, with rain POURING down and thunder booming away throughout the Mass. Really bizarre. Maybe Mom ordered it, special for us.

Anyway, am now contending with mountains of paperwork, but making good progress. And I am going to try to catch up on my reading at Black Pearl Sails, and here at LJ, too, though it may take a while. I did read ladywarringford's latest chapter of her story, PotC: Between The Raindrops this morning and it was just wonderful. If you like het romance, don't miss it. She's a wonderful writer.

Again, many thanks to all of you for the kind thoughts, prayers, and virtual hugs. It made such a difference.

As ladymora says, "I have a deep and abiding love for you all." Which is no more than the truth.

Will now post two recipes to prettygoodfood, and then... arg!... paperwork and numerous errands!

{{{hugs you all}}}

I'm sorry for your loss, m'dear, but what a wonderful gift that you were able to live with her the last few years and be such an integral part of her life.

I know! I'm so grateful things worked out the way they did. I'm just sad we didn't have a few more years together. She loved to travel (although it was getting more difficult), and I had just made reservations for Vegas, and we were trying to decide on our next cruise.

Thanks for the good thoughts. They are much appreciated.
