Familiar

Dear Ella,

Strange evening - empty house, I remember this from last September when Sophie went away.  Am reclaiming my space, settling and adjusting - it feels familiar, I have done it before and quite like it.  

Caught up on a bit of TV - including Downton Abbey.  The second the theme music came on - I was back sitting next to you in your hospital bed in Oxford - watching endless Downton episodes in between doctors, nurses et al coming in.  We were engrossed from the first series, lost in another world that was a million miles from the one we were living in. Did the trick - got us through some long old days and evenings.   It felt very familiar watching it tonight.

Lots of love

Mum
