A Memorial Tribute to My Nana

I wanted to post this, but needed to find the right picture to post here! Last weekend was my Nana's memorial service. My Nana was my honourary Grandma. She become one of my Adoptive grandparents from birth onwards, and was very lucky to have her in my life. She passed away March 24th, and her celebration of life made me reflect on what a very special person she was. She was the type of person who made everyone feel special.

December Daily 2012 Day # 6

Today I have enjoyed a little bit of Christmas Cheer with great company! I met a good friend for dinner at my favourite restaurant My Greek Taverna . I always enjoy going out for a Greek dinner with girlfriends because Andrei dislikes Greek food. It was fabulous dinner, and I have left overs to eat for tomorrow. I love this fact too because I always seem to find it difficult to be productive at making proper lunches this time of year. I am keeping this post short tonight, as I need to get started on the Christmas present for my sister's coworker!
