I don't do well with indecision and of course I would be chuffed to bits at our meeting up again some day. <br /><br />Love and hugs to you, Mick and Tilly, <br />Jaq xxxMrs. Jaqueline Biggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14248541763708771727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11311723.post-20546725648829681222018-03-27T13:12:30.647+00:002018-03-27T13:12:30.647+00:00Hi Jaq

Glad to hear you've weathered the last bit of snowy weather, here's hoping the world stays green through Easter.<br /><br />I'm selfishly glad that you've changed your mind about returning to the States. We'd only just go to meet you, now there is more chance of us seeing you again.<br />Hope spring will bring the right job along.<br />Much Love <br />Pip, Mick and a purr from Tilly x<br />Pip and Mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05169230665256821649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11311723.post-19662489455782679602018-03-26T16:38:15.340+00:002018-03-26T16:38:15.340+00:00Hi Carol,
I remember that picture on your blog v...Hi Carol, <br /><br />I remember that picture on your blog very, very well. I was so touched (and still am) by it when you posted it. <br /><br />The depression is an understandable consequence of grief. loss and the requirement to begin anew whether one wants to or not. It is a part of the journey and all I can do is live with it and try not become overwhelmed by it to the point I stop functioning. I have many decades of experience with depression so it has stood me in good stead. I am simply grateful my heart and soul have turned a corner in the healing process. One never knows who long profound grief will keep one company and to be honest it is as tiring for me to wake up each day to face it as it is for all of you to hear about it. But this is a process that one cannot gloss over or escape without dong severe damage to one's being and life so I plod along and do my inner work in an effort to make sense of the world and my place in it. At the very darkest times I know how fortunate I am in our friends. You've all been such a comfort to me and your love and care has made this difficult journey a little more bearable.<br /><br />Love Jaq xxx Mrs. Jaqueline Biggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14248541763708771727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11311723.post-84281811302731843602018-03-26T16:31:09.761+00:002018-03-26T16:31:09.761+00:00Hi Brandy,

When I saw the figurine of swans I remembered a photo I took a long time ago (June 2011) when we were on the Thames. My memory told me that I'd posted it on the blog but also perhaps on fb explaining that it reminded me of two very lovely people very much in love. Here's the link, I hope it works. Keeping our fingers and toes crossed that you soon find employment. Lots of love and hugs to you. <br /><br />xxhttp://3.bp.blogspot.com/-fkmYYsitSyg/TgScXLJjPKI/AAAAAAAAISQ/aop-VBAQKHQ/s1600/DSCN8821.JPGCarolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18155792486454776550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11311723.post-22306478515126982422018-03-25T23:41:44.861+00:002018-03-25T23:41:44.861+00:00Hi Aunt Jaqui,

Sooner or later some employer will recognize the contribution you can make and I hope it's sooner. So fantastic what supportive good friends you have.

Life must be very hard for you but I'm pleased you now have it in your mind that you are on the right track, that can only make life easier for you. You have such wonderful friends, it must warm your heart. I love the swans, it's a beautiful figure. Glad you survived the snow, spring is with us now, life can only get better. We are at Audlem at the moment deciding what to do now due to the breach so hopefully we will eventually meet up. Hope you have more luck on the job front.
