I always feel a bit melancholy after looking at old pics. <br /><br />For the record, I don't think you have squandered your life at all! You have two fabulous children and you are clearly doing an amazing job of bringing them up...your managing to be parent and friend and that is not an easy thing to do. As for plans...pah...I have NEVER had a plan go to...erm...plan :-D. Just do what you love to do, look out for opportunities and when they come around grab them.<br /><br />*hugs*<br /><br />C xCarolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327016337976942530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6009468722326751050.post-66547505798568076482013-06-10T13:34:28.433+01:002013-06-10T13:34:28.433+01:00I cry when I look at old photos too, sometimes unb...I cry when I look at old photos too, sometimes unbearable to consider the loss of loved ones.

I am sure when this day passed you brushed yourself off and refocused. Old wounds do open from time to time and can make us weep but that's life I'm afraid and I think you have an awful lot to be proud of so please don't fret.xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6009468722326751050.post-3655327654785247762013-05-27T18:10:13.727+01:002013-05-27T18:10:13.727+01:00Hope the black dog has moved on to a new home. xx

But we have these glorious memories to keep us company to help beat the black dog into submission. It's taken me two months to start writing again and gettng out after the most recent black dog visit.

My friends from high school live half a continent away. (In the Colony of Canada, that's a significant distance.) That was then; this is now.<br /><br />I love Tall Girls excitement. She is a beautiful young woman in so many ways. <br /><br />I do not like the Black Dog. His brother is here most of the time. <br /><br />But we move on, plan or otherwise.<br /><br />Blessings and Bear hugs!<br /><a href="http://bears-noting.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Bears Noting</a><br /><a href="http://in-the-urban-forest.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Life in the Urban Forest</a> (poetry)Rob-bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00171692478879522588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6009468722326751050.post-9189237131480472742013-05-19T21:36:53.324+01:002013-05-19T21:36:53.324+01:00I think your daughter's words are very wise.
I...I think your daughter's words are very wise.<br />I like to browse through old photos too and often feel the same as you do. Things do move on and people get left behind but all the experiences we have are never wasted it is all part of living. I wouldn't want to have to go through it all again. Lets press on and enjoy what we can........ just remind me to do that from time to time when I forget!<br />Maggie x<br /><br /><a href="http://granniemay.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Nuts in May</a>Maggie Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06183886005936250976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6009468722326751050.post-28755474211258173892013-05-19T21:22:34.384+01:002013-05-19T21:22:34.384+01:00Looking through old photos can bring up many emoti...Looking through old photos can bring up many emotions, life is tough and I am sorry to read the Black Dog has been around.
