The fair was a success, I sold well, people were happy and it was not raining. The rain is in my heart today. A friend of mine has passed away. She died from cancer at the age of 31. Her girl just turned three. It is all too sad and unfair. This is how she chose to announce her departure in the paper, I think it's beautiful:Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away
into the next room.
I am I and you are you.
Whatever we were to each other,
that we still are.

Oh...I'm really sorry for your loss. Your friend was my age! I lost my mother when I was 3years old and I (still) miss her a lot. Life is really hard sometimes...
On another note, I loved your angels on your stand :)
Kaunis "runo"!
Elämä on... joskus iloa... joskus surua. 31-vuotias on liian nuori kuolemaan mutta kaikilla ei ole onnea vanheta rauhassa. Joskus miettii mitä sitä omalle kohdalle tulee...
Pikkusiskoni sai tänään pikkuisen tytön, 1270g. Pitkän odotuksen jälkeen tilanne ratkesi ja nyt eletään päivä kerrallaan pikkuisen kanssa...
The stall looks fabulous, as do all of your goodies.
I'm so sad for the loss of your friend. Cancer is a very cruel disease and has taken too many beautiful people before their time.
I wish her and her family and friends peace x
That's a beautiful poem. I hope it eases your sense of loss a little.
Thinking of you.
Really sorry about your loss, and thinking of your friend's small child. Cancer is a terrible thing.
Congratulations for you success at the Market, although now it doesn't seem important at all.
Best wishes.
I am sorry for you sadness. I feel for your friend's family.
I'm also sad today.
I just heard that a 12-year old boy was killed in a quad bike accident at the weekend.
His sister is in my son's class and I am friendly with the mother.
How do you explain that to a 5-year old?
Life can be shit sometimes.

Your stand looks lovely.

I am very sorry to hear about the loss. Strange how these things mostly happen with fall season.
The poem is very beautiful, indeed.
Beklagar sorgen, det är så tråkigt när någon som är för ung för att gå bort gör det. Som har små barn dessutom...
Det får ju en att undra varför...
Älskar alla dina grejer du gör för övrigt! De är så underbara. Tack för din kommentar på min dock lite torftiga blogg, ska försöka uppdatera den lite nu. Har bytt adress till magsroom.blogspot.com
Ha det bra.
Hugs to you, sweet Kajsa. that is a beautiful poem and a thought that we would all do well to remember.
I am so sad to hear about the loss of your friend.

It is a beautiful poem and it is too sad and unfair. I'll be thinking of you and her family today.
That is very beautiful and sad. I'm very sorry for your loss, and for the family of your friend. I hope that you will be there for the 3 year old to tell her how wonderful her mother was.

Your stall looks so intriguing! I'm sure it would look even better in real life.
I am so sorry for your loss too. Cancer is such a cruel disease.

Oh Kajsa, I'm so very sorry to hear about your friend. It is always hard to lose someone dear but somehow worse when they are so young and with little children.
Her poem was quite beautiful.
Lots of love xxx
