Old Time Photos thread.

Touching to see all these photos of loved ones from the past, some now gone. Here is my husband at the height of his youth. He's long lost that but I see him through love's eyes where he's forever young:

I get the feeling that's how the Queen saw Phillip in this picture. ;)

I don't know that that bit ever passes. When I was posting about my mom earlier, I started crying, and it's been over three years.

Oh, my. That's never okay with me, the Christmas losses. And mom is just quite frankly far too new a loss to be anything but grief-stricken.

Remember, back in the day; there was a period of mourning. Often a year, sometimes two. It was so appropriate, I have no idea why it was done away with. I think people should at least get that much time as a given if they want it. I understand that for some, it's too much time, and they want to return to wearing bright colors and kicking up their heels, but for those who are still hurting, it should be understood. "This was my mother from before time, and this loss has blown a rather large hole in my heart and life."
 
BDBoop, Michael is watching the auto races, and 13 y/o retriever, and the almost 2 y/o 8.2 lbs. yorkie are happily sleeping on him. Man and furkids are being blissfully lazy. I'm still in pity mode. But they tell me time will fix all.
