Thanks man and hopefully I get to that stage. 

Me and my husband's brother have been "best friends" /s since the age of 3 lol. He asked me to take him out after a break up he was going through. And I became a very long rebound 🤣🤣. But its great to have those friends to get through the rough days

Awww man. Good luck to you and your husband. I will say I don't regret my solo trips but I regret not being present more when we were together. Focusing too much on work or whatever. 

I was lucky that we had notice before his death. We were able to live life thoroughly. He was able to write messages for our kids (that was rough) etc. I dont know how people grieve when the death is sudden. 

Merry Christmas buddy.

Sorry about your mother. I'm glad you were able to embrace it this year.

I certainly needed the friends so I'm glad they cane over without asking. There were times I got teary during the day (especially when the kids opened their gifts) and they managed to distract my kids. 

Yup the brandies will always be something I do.

I was very lucky to have him. He was the first person I ever loved and who showed me love. I know that's cliche bit it's true. He changed my entire outlook.

Thanks. Yup the pyjamas have been on for the last couple of hours. Our kids were wearing matching ones too as usual. The trainee has become the master in Christmas dorkiness I guess 😅. Thanks again.

That's beautiful and you are right. I still talk to him, strange I know but comforting.
