There’s a hole in my bucket list

I wonder what Mum would think: COVID-19 and the unforgettable third anniversary of her death

We’re living in strange times. COVID-19 is unlike anything most of us have ever experienced. As the third anniversary of Mum’s death approaches, I can’t help but wonder what Mum would think of it all.

2010-2019: The decade that was

For me, it is a chance to reflect on the last decade before moving forward positively into the next. For you, it is an opportunity to find out more about Tea with Mum before there was Tea with Mum. Read on to find out more about some of the events of the last decade that changed our lives forever.

The anniversary of her death - the bad kind of anniversary. I plan to take tea... with Mum.

The bad kind of anniversary – 2 years since Mum died

My Mum died two years ago today. It is so hard to believe that so much time has passed and still hurts so much. Yet this blog and taking tea with my Mum have been a big help. And now I have an idea of where we are headed.
