Profoundly magical video :-). This is definitely a Christmas Special Kelly :-). Certainly a friendly Christmas special for Christmas 2018 when this was made :-). This also included gracious entertainment I must say :-). This video is slowly making my week despite the fact that Christmas has nearly long but passed and I'm certainly wishing to watch this again when Christmas 2020 arrives and every Christmas after that :-). I have the greatest intention to do so :-). This video is slowly making my week Kelly I must say. I'm really sorry to share this with you Kelly but Edmund my dear stepgrandfather passed away on Tuesday 18th February 2020 aged 73 which was heartbreaking news and I'm specifically heartbroken following his death as its a really big loss Kelly :-(. Plus I've currently been facing a lot of grief following his death :-(. That's now 2 losses I've suffered in less that 3 months because Keith another dear relative of mine passed away on the 23rd November 2019 aged 92 which was also sad but his death was expected as he really wasn't doing too well in the latter of his life :-(. Keith really just died of old age though Kelly but he had a good life all the same but he wasn't too happy in the latter of his life :-(. Because all Keith had in the latter of his life was, zero mobility, a slight inability of reading and a complete loss of independence which was pretty whch the final straw for Keith and it did hasten him greatly :-(. I knew Edmund would die sometime after Keith but I didn't think his death would happen so shortly after Keith's death which is what's made it so heartbreaking :-(. But me and some of my family relatives went over to the Isle of Wight to see my dear grandmother which is where she lives to give her some support and some company the day Edmund died despite the fact that she knew he would die eventually and she was ok though as she wasn't in too much mourning but she will miss him tremendously though :-/. But Edmund was very healthy for the past 20 odd years of his life you see Kelly because about 20 odd years ago Edmund suffered a severe heart attack which required quadruple bypass surgery and Edmund subsequently underwent it but when the surgeons finished his bypass surgery they accidentally damaged his esophagus :-(. So since then he couldn't swallow very well so he only ate children's portions when it came to meals Kelly so eating and drinking was really not heartily in his interest :-(. Also he was underweight following bypass surgery :-(. But he was all there mentally until the very end and until the summer of 2019 he was still taking really long walks regularly Kelly :-). I take long walks too myself :-). But in 2018 and 2019 Edmund really started going downhill sadly Kelly because in July 2018 he had a sample of a bone marrow hospital test which gave him the diagnosis of thrombocytopenia having issues with his thrombocytes and blood platelets which he had to take medication for which sadly took tolls on his health whenever he took the medication for it when he was medicated :-(. Plus Edmund drastically lost a lot of weight in the latter of his life too and he was painfully underweight when he died :-(. Poor man :-(. Edmund was my grandfather, the grandfather I never had because all my real grandads passed away Kelly :-(. Edmund was technically my stepgrandfather but was a grandfather figure to me and I certainly looked up to him as if he were my own grandfather all my life :-). I used to spend a lot of time with Edmund and certainly my dear grandmother when I was a small boy and in other parts of my misspent youth Kelly. But I'll also be heading over to the Isle of Wight again in March 2020 for Edmund's funeral Kelly and I don't know if I'll be going there again in April of 2020 or in the summer of 2020 Kelly but I'll certainly have to see. I'm terribly sorry if I had to share you the heartbreaking news Kelly :-(. But nonetheless the video was worthwhile to watch and I definitely liked it well :-). All the best Kelly and have a nice evening and I'll try and check out Hilary's channel if I can :-). Because I know you were recommending Hilary's channel in the previous video of yours I last watched :-). It was uploaded in June 2019 and you linked Hilary's channel and I'll try to watch it :-). All the best Kelly :-). From your friend Foxy :-).
Oh, Kelly, your house in candlelight is beyond gorgeous!! As beautiful as it is in daylight-it seems made for the light of🕯 May peace and good will fill your home and your hearts!! With love and friendship - Rebecca
Your house is gorgeous! Listening to today’s podcast you talked about adding books to the table behind the tree. You said you didn’t like it, that something wasn’t right. Have you considered putting bookcases there and setting the chairs in front of it? It would add coziness I agree that it needs something so it doesn’t feel so rigid. Just a cozy thought
YES Sherry - exactly it is too rigid there! Great word for it! The table is gone and moved to the other side of the room next to the sofa. I like it there a lot. Fills up the space and lots of horizontal space. Bookcases is exactly what I am thinking. Just struggling about how Victoria & Albert ( the chairs ;) ) fit in. I'll get there - thanks so much for the help!! Merry Christmas !!
Kelly, your home is beautiful! Simply perfection! Victorian homes are my favorite and no one decorates her better than you! The candle light is gorgeous!
Magical!!! Everything looks lovely!!! Merry Christmas to you and your family!!!
Same to you Leslie! Thank you - Happy New Year!!
Merry Christmas and enjoy your magical home. Cheers, Ardith
Merry Christmas to you Ardith! I am wrapping a few more gifts and then the festivities begin! Hope you are having a lovely Christmas Eve !
