I’ve been a bit off, and grumpy, for the last little while, and it wasn’t until I was talking with my daughter that I realized the cause…

I hadn’t been paying much attention to the calendar as most of the time feels like Saturday or Sunday now that I am retired, lol…

it has been thirteen years to the day since my beloved passed…

feels a bit like it snuck up on me although in the past month I have had several dreams about finding him in the hospital with a disconnected breathing tube in his mouth… no one had told me he was dead…

seems strange that after all this time I can still be whacked with the grief…

the good news is that once I figure out what has been causing the discomfort, it usually passes and I am able to move forward in a more positive frame of mind…

I don’t forget him, but can get back to remembering all of the wonderful times we had together and make new memories of the wonderful life that I do have…

this photo of trees is one of the last I took with him… we had taken a drive through the park to see the hoarfrost…

so many wonderful memories;-)…

the desktop computer has been a bit grumpy for quite some time…

a month ago or so it just stopped working… I thought maybe it was the fan as I didn’t seem to be hearing any noise from it, so I turned it off and left it alone, lol…

recently my housemate discovered that it wasn’t working and checked on it…

of course it started up without a problem… it is like it knows someone who understands something is there so it behaves itself… but it was working very slowly…

next, I contacted my computer geek son-in-law to climb in and see what the problem was…

he got in there, looked around, and while he was looking it started to work at an excellent speed, sigh…

next, I will work on it for a while and see how it behaves…

roof…

rather sad today…

this was the scene from yesterday… the back side of the house is done but not the front, although apparently it is water tight…

was looking forward to it being all finished this afternoon… they told me they would be here around nine this morning…

this is what the roof looks like now, sigh…

they never came and their stuff is all over the yard so I can’t even sit out and enjoy the garden…

I’m fairly sure they aren’t going to come tomorrow and Monday’s forecast is for rain…

feeling rather grumpy and wishing my beloved was here to sort this all out…
