Hi Sue
Like everyone else I do hope things turn the corner for Michael and for you re the work situation. It always seems crazy that they don't let people who want to, go, rather than folk who are desperate to keep working.

Keep in touch.

All blessings to you both.

Dear Min

I do hope that by the time your holiday ends you feel really revitalised to face the long window. I started to look at winter eveenings differently when a friend, who lived on her own, shared how she loved pulling the curtains and settling down in front of the warm fire and could just please herself.

I think you are dong really…[Read more]
