Yesterday was HSNW stamp show. I got my tickets weeks ago, then on Friday my dad died suddenly. I decided to go to the show anyway, but I wondered around in a bit of a daze. Didn't buy much at all and even came home with cash (which was a shock!)
It was lovely to meet up with friends, the hugs were very much appreciated. I didn't break down in tears as I thought. When I spoke to Jennie from The Artistic Stamper, she told me that I had probably done my crying and grieving already. And she was right. Watching dad waste away with various forms of Altzheimers was soul destroying. His death was a blessing, but it was such a shock.
Anyway, I did pick up a few stamps at the show which I had no intention of buying....just couldn't resist them!. I fell in love with Jennie's new stamp designs so watch this space for eye candy in the next few days. I'll need to keep busy for the next week or so until the funeral. here's a link to Jennie's blog with links to her website and other fun sites:)

Oh, my condolences Annie. No doubt you are grieving all the memories that could have been had he not had Alzheimer's too. That is such a nasty disease. Best wishes to you and your family!
