The sun still comes up in the morning
One of the luckiest aspects of my job, is meeting some of the most fantastic people, two years ago when I statrted here I was fortunate enough to meet a lovely young women named Helen Johnson who was in one of the bridge groups who plays here at the club every Wednesday, and every Wednesday I grew to know and love her just that little bit more, she was such a vibrant, happy person with so many stories to share. At 97 she still lived on her own, played lawn bowles twice a week, visted the library and played bridge and you would not believe her age. Last year she turned 99 and her only son was planning her 100th birthday. Last week I learnt of her passing only the week prior. I was devasted to say the least, however was happy to hear it was quite quick. I believe her funeral was rather large and that her son spoke in great lenghth of her amazing life. The funeral was based on the celebraton and was bright and cheery. Whilst the sun still rises in the morning I would just like to say I miss you Helen, and you will always be rembered.

Yep I can see it, can you see it, have you looked closer, really really closer. Yes you got it, I have posted again. day 2, Im excited, yippee Im going strong now. However stay tuned for day 3 cause it will be even better!!!
However, I take a breath because I am going to get on a serious note.. today, after waking up and thinking OMG does it have to rain all the bloody time when Im not at work, can we just have one good sunny bright weekend. Well today I have been talking to a work collegue/friend as he was released out of hospital yesterday after having a brain bleed and a mild stroke, and will take a couple of months to recover and he is only in his early fourties, however whilst talking to him he was mostly telling me of the young man (25) who was in the bed next to him who was in a motorbike accident (not wearing a helmet) has 25 bleeds in the brain has lost his speach, however he still understands all that is said to him and cannot walk.
Wow really makes you sit up and notice everything around you, celebrate everyday, the sun is still shinning even when it is raining, and everyday is bright, look at what is around YOU and everything in you life.
Until later, enjoy the rest of your weekend and have a great Monday.... Thanks for looking.
