Post 413. A FAST FAREWELL TO 2021

 A  CRAP YEAR.

THAT ENVELOPED US IN A DARK CLOUD..
I am going to waste scant time on this. It has been a darkly clouded year for our family and I hope yours has been a better one.
For us, the death from cancer of daughter Roz on 12 April is constantly brought back by the myriad reminders of her residency here for the two years throughout her brave, subsequently unsuccessful, fight for life.
She is, rightly, always on our minds, though we try hard not to give way to self-indulgent grief.
Grandson Ellis is still with us and maintains remarkable outward composure.
Granddaughter Jess clearly misses the close friendship of her mother but does not allow it to become self-pity.
They are their mother's children and her obvious pride in them has been utterly justified.
Other than that, is has been a crap year. I do hope yours has been better.
THAT'S ALL FOR NOW.
AND TO HELL WITH THE BLOODY COVID!
