    I'm so sorry to hear that, beanie :( my condolences. So difficult to get that news when you're still so lacking in energy as well :( but you want to honour your friend, of course.

  • My thoughts are with you Beanie. So sorry for your loss. I hope your energy comes back I know it is so difficult to bounce back from these illnesses.

    Take care.

    Sorry about your friend Beanie - take care of yourself - fighting the lurgy and coping with grief are not a good combo - give yourself a little extra TLC. Hope it goes as well as it can on Thursday xx

    New window sounds great, positive vibes on their way.

    I remember the pure joy when OH and I got some of the rotten and very drafty windows replaced, with double glazed ones no less, in our first home together many, many years ago:D

    So sorry about your friend, be gentle with yourself:)
