I Know Nothing Stays The Same

I broke off from writing the last entry to write this. I'm sitting in the kitchen at the computer with the radio on at 7.45 in the morning, and Carly Simon's "Coming Around Again" has just come on the Johnny Walker Show.

Towards the end of her life this was my mam's favourite song, from one of her favourite films, "Heartburn".

It's brought all my grief rushing back up to the surface.

As Heather said about Geoff while we were walking along Liverpool Street last week, one isn't overcome by old grief when one is expecting it, but when one isn't.
