Slowly, but surely

Three weeks later.

Trying to get myself back together. I cry a little less each day. I feel things starting to come back into colour.

Bereavement, of whatever kind, is difficult; but I sometimes find it hard to be patient with myself.

Work helps. Friends help. Love helps.

Apologies

Dear Reader,

You will, I hope, forgive my absence.

The past few days have been difficult to say the least.

My beloved Lucy is doing well; and I am slowly, but surely, writing myself better.

A return to form is imminent.
