i'm back

It seems a lifetime ago since I posted.
My dearest Aunt - the only one left of my father's siblings, had a stroke and then passed away two days later.
I spent the Tuesday at her side in the Emergency Department, before she was placed in the High Dependency Unit, she drifted into an unresponsive state that night which led to a few hours up at the hospital in the middle of the night, and meant numerous phone calls to family and then after she died I had to organise her funeral with my sister.
We had to ring all our cousins who live elsewhere and other friends.
It has been a very emotionally exhausting time.
Her funeral last Wednesday was just beautiful and a real witness to her life and love of God.
Then VCH and I went away for the weekend without children- something we have never done, but it was very special.
A post about that coming soon.
I have a heap of posts in the works and I have just not had the energy to finish them and get them out to blogland, so look forward to a catch up week with lots of posts.
