What a week. It’s definitely been 7 days I’ll remember forever. A week of frantic funeral arrangements and sadness, which ended with me spending a day baking solidly for an afternoon tea party which was held on Saturday.
A celebration I wasn’t really in the mood to celebrate. I went, I smiled, I circulated and then I came home and crawled back into myself.
After the funeral on Thursday I met some friends in the pub, shared a bottle of very acceptable prosecco with them and raised a glass to my dad. Prosecco is the celebratory drink of choice round these parts and I really wanted to raise a glass to him.
At the afternoon tea party there was also prosecco aplenty, I caught this snap of a tray of drinks being poured for the guests. A bottle of birthday fizz.
Everything seems a bit of a jumble right now. I’m so tired but I’m forging on as best I can. Life goes on apparently.
It does. The choice is to lie down and give up or carry on. So we carry on, and your Dad would want nothing else. I’m glad you have so many friends and family around you – let them shoulder you awhile xx
Beautiful photo. I hope the funeral went as well as it could.
Thank you for linking up
I’m sorry to hear about your dad. I hope the funeral went as well as one can. Prosecco is definitely a good choice – turns it into a celebration of life. #MySundayPhoto
