Morning Miss Ruby, Thanks for reply, I am well,thank you, When I look in the mirror, I see my mother looking back at me, I am pleased as I always hoped I would look as good as she did when she was old, 10 cats Ruby, I bet they hope you don't get. Dog! Keep well, I think you are having problems with high air pollution at the moment,not good for anyone,especially those who have lung problems, Very best wishes. Bulpit

I too see my mother looking back at me, it keeps me in line, she was the matriarch of the family, I have tried to have a softer approach as the oldest in the family now.

take care

Morning Polly, So good to hear that you see your Mum as well, also that you have learnt to be softer in your dealings with family and friends. I also try to be more tolerant of others as I have got older,nice that getting older has made us wiser, Very best wishes, Bulpit

Strange to say but I also see my mother staring back at me. I even have some of her characteristics which is no bad thing. I sometimes wear her wedding ring as it makes me feel close to her again. Stay well bulpit and everyone. xxxx

Morning Sassy, Yes, I also have some of my Mums traits,hopefully the good ones ! Nice to wear her wedding ring. I am sure like me, you would love to have her back,and ask her all the questions that you didn't ask about. Unfortunately, didnt really want to listen when I had the chance. Hope your week goes well Sassy, Very best wishes, Bulpit

bulpit Good morning I see my dad looking back at me ,you are so right about asking questions I so would love to be able to spend a day with him to ask everything I did not listen too when I had chance suppose life got in the way .There is a old saying about not missing someone till there gone so true.

Hi Paul, I guess there are thousands of people with the same wish as us, so true that other things seemed more pressing when we had the time to listen . Unfortunately lots of " If only" I also have so many regrets that I did'nt say all the things I should have said before my husband died. Thanks for the reply, Very best wishes. bulpit
