Stages of ....
LindaE:
Hah! Well, the glass of wine went down nicely and the thread you linked to, Branch, was a very good read, good to get one thinking.

Gotta agree, you can take your aunt's words and apply them to grief....and mucho other stuff too. Strange how an offhand remark overheard years ago will stick with you. The brain's filtering system is quite inexplicable.
My mother was 42 when I was born....a happy accident, as they say. Have marveled since I turned that age how she ever coped with me. Don't think I could have done it, nor would I have wanted to. And that's partly why I am childless. By the time I met Pete I was 30, by the time we were settled enough as a couple I was 35, and I decided that my notion of having a child "someday" had run out of time, not biologically perhaps, but in other ways. And Pete was 10 years older than I and also felt he was too old to become a first time daddy.
And honestly no real regrets.
the Warden aka Joanie
