Today was a difficult one but thanks to family and friends, I’ve made it through the other end of the day.

The house is clean now – I’ve even boxed up all the cards – wedding and sympathy ones – I’m going to keep them obviously but the time to not display them all has come.

Trying to do the garden hurt a lot and triggered the emotions. I’m going to persevere though, not letting it beat me otherwise it’ll be even harder next time around.

Although most of the house is tidy, there’s still an excess of collected uniforms cluttering the place. Bit by bit, hopefully this will become more manageable and once I have the space the remainder will be homed such that I can use the house as intended.
