Here
it is Sunday afternoon, yesterday I didn't bother opening the
computer, when I got home it was around 3pm and I felt so tired that
all I wanted to do was go and have a nap which I did after the nap I
didn't feel like doing much of anything so I did nothing.
This
morning I was up at 7am I heard the tv going in the lounge room and
thought it was later in the morning and that Jessica must had been
here but I was wrong it was Tim he left for work a few minutes later.
I
checked the casserole and turned it back on for a couple of hours
ready for lunch there was only me and Jessica here for lunch and
casserole is her favourite meal. I also watched the girls while
Kathy and Michael went out to find Sydney-May's birthday present,
Summer ate a fair amount of the casserole but Sydney-May only had a
few grapes.
The
funeral was good, I shed a few tears it was mum who was emotional but
Aunty Nita was mum's favourite aunt so that is to be expected.
Afterwards there was a wake at the bowling club which was great all
in all it was a nice day, we spent the night at a local motel one of
the cheap motels but a nice one anyway.
Friday
night I had a so so sleep took me a while to settle down and I was
woken during the night by dad who was having a coughing fit and was
not well at all. In fact on Saturday morning he didn't want to wake
up but of course he had too, mum drove to Macca's for breakfast and
then she drove out to the cemetery at Wauchope, we went to put
flowers on mum's grandparents graves.
Now
days mum prefers to use artificial flowers over fresh flowers and
have to agree they last longer and look nice so much better then
seeing a lot of dead flowers left on graves.
This
afternoon I am watching Great British Bake Off it is a favourite
Sunday afternoon show for me.
Pleasing to note you are back home and safe after your journey.
ReplyDeleteI too use artificial flowers for my parents grave.
Yes they do look so much nicer, well I think they do
DeleteThe British baking show is on our public television now. I think I would enjoy it, but I haven't had time to watch it. I hope it shows up on Netflix Streaming. It's so much easier for me to watch things on there.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
Yes I stumbled apond it a year ago and really liked it
DeleteI love that show. Very fun and the guy host is a hottie!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean
DeleteI LOVE that show! I just love it!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are back and safe and now your life is normal again after sadness.
Me too, yes I'm home and doing the normal daily things
DeleteI do too, life is back to normal
DeleteDearest Jo-Anne,
ReplyDeleteGlad you made it back home safe with your Parents after an emotional funeral. Never easy and that's also what wears you out.
Rest up and feel better for a new week to tackle.
Hugs,
Mariette
Yes life is back to normal but it was a nice break away anyway
DeleteJust another Saturday and Sunday ... Not. I'm glad your trip went well. I hear your mom about artificial or fresh flowers. 😊
ReplyDeleteYes it did and now I am back to the norm
DeleteI've never seen that show but heard it was pretty good.
ReplyDeleteI hope your dad is okay!
Dad is still not good but mum is there to keep and eye on him
DeleteAll in all a good way to spend Sunday except for having to say goodbye to a loved one.
ReplyDeleteI often feel that way after a long nap. If I keep it short, to say 20 minutes, I do find, but much longer and I'm a slug for the rest of the day :)
ReplyDeleteWe buried close friends this past year. It's never easy.
Take care.
Dearest Jo-Anne,
ReplyDeleteFollowing you as loyal as I can and also commenting and waiting for your reply but there is NO telling by all those emails, which one is addressed at me.
So why don’t you mention the person’s name so we can delete all the others?
It sure would help with all my emails and time schedule...
Sending you hugs,
Mariette
Sounds like a good day doing just what you wanted to do. What I wouldn't give to have one show I could binge watch all day. Seems there's nothing good on tv lately....
