My boy was awarded a Worker of the Week certificate today. His class teacher wrote: "he has not just been a worker of the week, he has been for many weeks now. He has become extremely kind and friendly towards others; he tries his best; gets his jobs completed; and is making great relationships with adults in the school. Well done, we are very proud of you."
I am so proud of my boy. He has been going through a real tough time lately, helping me pick a wig since the horrid chemo has made my hair fall out, selecting the piece of field at the green burial ground where he wants to be able to come see me in the future, and comforting me when I am in pain or unhappy. He's a good little boy, even though he's Mr Scruffy Untucked T-shirt today at school.

WOW
shopping with angels
I fear I have been absent from photography and Flickr for quite some time. I have been rather ill over the past few weeks, nasty side effects from the newest in a long line of chemotherapies. With this one I have finally met my match, becoming very ill and ending up in hospital. It's even made my hair fall out and that's very rare with this kind of chemo.
Anyway, I have no idea how long I will last from this so decided to sort out my affairs while I can, well in advance, hopefully, of needing them sorted. So I went with my husband to see a funeral director and from there to pick where I would like to be buried. And the above is a shot of Olney Green Burial Ground. It's eco-friendly, they plant trees, so I will be helping the planet. And, they have benches, lots of benches. So my place will have a bench which I invite you all to come and stand on some time in th future. And there are nice fences, although the one in this shot is distant.
This bench belongs to a lady who loved to shop. I hope, wherever she is now, she can have all the shoes and pretty dresses she ever dreamed of.
