I would visit her Summers and she would always have a half finish jigsaw puzzle of some sort on the parlor table that she and her sister would poke around at from time to time. <br /> My great auntie was also quite the eccentric character and very vivacious . As a teenager I would busy myself in her garden observing her from a distance. She would oft be doing things I thought to be rather obscure yet fascinating . I admired her gusto to be totally who she was offering no apologies and having no care or what for, to those who didn't care to understand her . She was a bit of a rebel for her day . I secretly like to think I have a bit of her hutzpah !Willowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02507537074005136610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-777075932400116766.post-7619631497133019452014-02-06T15:52:11.798+00:002014-02-06T15:52:11.798+00:00Intriguing and interesting story!

Memory is so important to Mum. In some ways they appear to be getting more real to her - perhaps it is just that she is living her fears of the future through them. In some way, they seem to be her language to understand the world in which she has found herself.
