20+ years ago Len asked me what I wanted for our wedding anniversary, as he bought a card, but never a gift. I said that I would like the week of his birthday, and our wedding anniversary at the beach. That was when we bought week 41.
This year his birthday falls on the day I drive down to Treasure Island, so I won’t be stopping for lunch as I won’t want to be eating on my own. Then 2 days later would be our wedding anniversary. I should celebrate it, but know that being the first on my own, I will struggle. I do have friends down there that week, so maybe I could get them to do something to include me. That way it might take my mind off of it.

Bonjour mon Ami (ie) qu’il est bon de se réveiller devant un petit déjeuner
Moment privilégié, moment où on se retrouve en tête à tête avec soi-même, moment où on sourit à la vie 😊
Se réveiller plus tôt permet de démarrer sa journée au meilleur de nous-même, un café, un premier sourire
Je te souhaite une belle journée avec les tiens
Amitié bisous BERNARD

February was our anniversary month and also my birthday and we always went away or did something. This year we were in lockdown again and I had a FaceTime birthday opening Lego presents little grandsons sent me. It’s hard to imagine what next February will be like!

“Firsts” are hard. I’d say it gets better but it doesn’t, you just get used to it.

Thank you for sharing!!.. Life can be somewhat sad at times but know that Len is in your heart and with you always and he will be enjoying the day with you… “Life gives us brief moments with another, but sometimes in those brief moments we get memories that last a lifetime, So live that your memories will be part of your happiness.” (Author Unknown)… 🙂
Until we meet again..
May the love that you give
Always return to you,
That family and friends are many
And always remain true,
May your mind only know peace
No suffering or strife,
May your spirit only know love and happiness
On your journey through life.
