Sending Love Across The Blog Sphere











Texan Art.


The news about BobRobert has really shaken me up, can't believe that right now this wonderful man is slipping out of life, and was extremely upset when I read Steve's post on Saturday.

Today I could not settle to do anything, was just too distracted thinking about those two lovely friends in Texas

Somehow it did not get me crying then, but just now I had a couple of kind comments about my post about BobRobert yesterday.

And that opened the floodgates and I howled for about 20 minutes before I could manage to stop and Richie successfully dried my tears.

Had tried very unsuccessfully to dry my eyes once or twice before, but each time I had dried my face the tears started again.

And again and again, even more so when I thought about Steve alone without his darling BR, hope he has plenty of love and support around him.

The thought of BobRobert lying in the Willie Nelson room at the hospice is very bittersweet, how lovely of Willie Nelson to sponsor a room in the hospice.

We saw him twice here in Amsterdam, the first time I managed to struggle through a sold out Paradiso and get up to the stage, where Willie Nelson was signing autographs.

It was a dream come true when he noticed me waving at him and came over, it was my big moment to speak to him.

All I managed was to stammer ‘’ I love you Willy’’ and he smiled and said thank you and signed my concert ticket.

Somehow reading about BobRobert being in the Willie Nelson is strangely comforting.

Sitting here now looking out of the window, it is gone 8.30 pm and the daylight is gradually fading away.

Can hear my darling cooking, by the sounds and the delicious smell coming into the bedroom I can tell that Richie will be appearing any minute now with a plate of food for me.

Think I will be able to eat now, not planning to do anything much after I posted this with the Texan art I found on the internet.

Hope lots of people go and visit The Wheel of Fortuna and leave supportive messages for Steve.

Herrad, Darlin' -

The amount of love you are able to rally from your flat in Amsterdam is nothing short of incredible. The two of us feel protected by the world at this most vulnerable time.

Give Richie a hug for us.
