Scrumpy

Having a cup of tea brought to me in bed in the mornings..
Doing a crossword together .. A walk in the park..
 Simple things.. Hearing the front door open and know it's not a burglar.. Lifting the heavy things..
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

Alex

Someone to ask when I'm not sure what to do :cool:

Do you mind if I ask how long have you both been alone ? 

Raven

Most of all I miss my daily walks with Dageus. Along with his company almost 24/7.

I have been on my own for over 20 years now,  so I guess I'm used to it.   
My dogs are good company,  they  don't argue,  are always pleased to see me, show a lot of love,  and give me reason to keep going. 

Occasionally I have thought it would be nice to have someone to discuss worries with,  and help with things I can't do,  but as for a cup of tea brought to me in bed,  I can't remember anyone ever doing that for me.

I've just read this drinking the tea my OH brings me most mornings these days.  ❤️

Scrumpy


I have been a widow for 30years.. Sam died aged 52..
I've been around the block a few times though.... 

He left me a dog.. cat.. mortgage free property and a pension..

I have discussed with my mate what I would say to Sam if he walked into the room..
 I really don't know.. So much water under the bridge.. He would be like a stranger..
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

Flying Bomb

Living alone is awful. Miss the odd chat.....
"Would you like a cup of tea?"  "Shall we go out for a stroll?"
ALL gone :-(

I've never lived alone. It'll come to one of us, we're both 80 now. Several of my friends have been widowed in the last couple of years.   

You were very young Scrumpy, and Michael, you have talked about your Veronica so beautifully.
