Sunday… Season of mists..
Oct 12th 2008PeterGetting My Life Back!
As I look out of my window this morning, the mist is just gently drifting in the trees at the bottom of the garden! Not sure if there is much mellow fruitfulness left though, as we seem to have had a few deer getting in from the fields behind.
It has been a quiet week although one tinged with sadness. I had been planning to go up to Glasgow on Saturday to see Elspeth, a good friend from LeukaemiaCare, and one of the training team. Sadly she died on Saturday morning, about eight hours before my flight was due to leave. She had been ill for some time, but it was only 10 datys ago that we had had a very lively conversation on the ‘phone. The link takes you to Elspeth’s blog, and the many comments that have been posted there.
Felicity returns from Uganda tomorrow. She has been out there with her brother who is involved with supporting a school there. Meanwhile neither Rachael nor myself have starved, and Felicity’s mother is settling into her new home about 20 minutes away.
So although a week with sadness in it, there have been some good and positive aspects too.
Onwards and upwards.

I didn’t know Elspeth but reading the tributes on her blog she was clearly loved and admired.
A great loss but an inspiration too.

Indeed she was – all of those those attributes.
