Today would have been my 41st wedding anniversary. It was a scorching hot day then back in 1976. What with a veil over my head and long lined wedding dress, I positively melted down the aisle. Thank goodness we had an open-top vintage Rolls Royce to take us from the church to the reception so I could cool down in the breeze. Happy 41st Anniversary, Greg, wherever you are.
My husband died after a long struggle with alcoholism and I am making the slow climb back to normality.

The Lady of the Hydrangeas
I visited my friend in Brighton last week on a boiling hot day and for a while we sought shade in her garden. I thought I'd share a photo she took of me.... I'm calling this work "The Lady of the Hydrangeas".

The lady in pink... lovely photograph.
ReplyDeleteThat is the first picture I have seen of you ADDY. You are a good-looking woman and that is a smashing picture. "The Lady of the Hydrangeas" would be a good title for a romantic novel. Perhaps a bare-chested Poldark would appear from the shubbery, panting after a long horse ride from Cornwall.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary... such a shame Greg didn't make it to celebrate with you
ReplyDeleteLove your photo. It's really becoming with all the blooms around you.
ReplyDeleteAnniversaries are a bit painful but I'm getting used to them now......
At least I got to my Golden while he was still alive.
