My parcel has just arrived ... blues

the one from the USA .. sent by the hubby of my Liver cancer buddy.

It's a box of things Trish wanted me to have..

I've been sad and kind of excited to see what she has given to me.. because I KNOW in there somewhere will be something to make me laugh a LOT.

She made the box up for me before she died.. but she said I had to 'Wait and see'.. roll eyes

(thats her with me on my profile pics- my traveling partner in crime)


But now it's here.. I'm too scared to open it. blues


I dunno what her hubby did with the postage.. but I had to pay £40 ($80) to accept it giggle




Arrrghh!!.. I don't know whether to open it later when I have finished work..

or open it now.


dunno blues

I peeped in there.. most of the things are wrapped..

I'm going to open it later because I made my eyes leak as soon as I peeped.. blues

Her cowboy hat is in there.. and I can see photographs of us I framed and gave her as gifts of our adventures... There is an unopened bottle of her perfume.. because she knew I loved how she smelt. blues
I cant see the other things without opening them.. the box is huuuge.

There is a Cd with 'Play me' ... and a letter.

So now.. I'm going to bung it on the shelf.. sneak off to the bathroom to cry for a bit.

Then open it all when I get home.


crying

I agree with everyone else. You don't want to rush through it by having to get to work. Take your time with it and savor the memories as you open each piece.

I agree with everyone else open it later, as you will want to be alone to remember and cry and laugh, all the emotions at once.
