Murphy The Cat
Grief is a funny thing. The loss of a sister - renewed by the clearing out of her things, the sudden shock of a tragic diagnoses of a friend, even the loss of a daughter from my home. (A happy occasion to be sure but she still leaves a gap - we are now seven, a nice number of course but a challenge to divide evenly :) Sweet and sad, highs and lows all rolled into one. So much has been going on around here and yet I have not been writing about it. Not even photographing it - which I do regret. So I am trying to improve, to imprint the moments, to get them down so as not to forget them. My heart goes out to all those whose lives are truly tragic, who have suffered terrible losses. I am humbled by them and their spirit spurs me to climb out of my own thoughts. To look outward instead of inward.
So next up, what we have been doing - and we have been doing lots of things. Resources to list, reviews to write, homeschooling progress to report, recipes to try and much more. And of course the making of sandwiches, lots of sandwiches.
