Memorial Piece Hajemeru~

Evening~

Today I woke up 8:20am
a good time, I had a sorta alright night's sleep

It was pouring down this morning so pets were inside
including Tiffin, he rarely comes inside in the mornings

I made a start on granny's memorial picture
I had gathered all the pieces together, and roughly layed them out
so I have been sitting for quite some time today doing it
I got really far actually

I have stuck all the paper down
so tomorrow I will stick down the objects
like jewelry and broaches
On the picture I have used so far
a telegram from France congratulating them on their wedding (god knows where is came from)
a wedding gift tag
couple of wedding decorations
50th golden wedding anniversary item they had on their cake
picture from a 2005 leaflet of Pendelfin (a rabbit ornament granny liked to collect)
a cut out of a birthday card granny signed
A5 page from granny's notepad from a recipe she wrote down
I tea stained the A5 page - as she liked her tea
A photo from their 50th anniversary
a cut out from a anniversary card
photo of granny young
photo of granny wearing her orange fleece she must have owned 20 years
a card cut out signed by papa
granny's "identification card" (guessing from the war days cus never seen one before)
a cut out from a newspaper from years ago a poem she liked (not sure of significance)
photo of granny enjoying her food years ago (she loved her food)
a cut out from a card mum gave granny for mother's day

so yeah i had quite a lot to go on
the picture is 14" x 10"
we're gonna buy a box frame for it to go in

i went to the flower shop with mum
to drop off the cards we wrote for granny to go beside her flowers
as the funeral
then we went for a lil walk

i had a lil rest but didnt fall asleepp
i couldnt stop thinking about the picture i was doing

mia came over after dinner for 10mins to pick her car up
dad talked her through about her MOT and stuff and what work
it does need in the future
i dont think she's ever been told things about her car
so she was very grateful
we said we'd meet up tomorrow for a walk

thats it really :)
