CONTACT


I am facing a dilemma, I have tracked down an old friend and don't know whether to try and make contact. We originally had a falling out about a decade ago over something I did. At the time she had two small children, was living with the father but was receiving single parent payments & little to no money from him - one of the children were sleeping on a mattress on the floor. Meanwhile at the time, he was driving around in a $65K car and buying doodads for himself. My response was to contact Centrelink (social security) - in fact it wasn't even me who made the phone call, it was my husband. It was a big mistake. I wrote to her asking for her forgiveness about 5 years ago but heard nothing back. I don't know whether to just move on & put it all behind me or to give it another shot. We shared a lot of fun times together despite being so vastly different. I do miss her - I think of her all the time.

TODAY'S TREASURE



My husband & I have just discovered "True Blood" & got through the whole of season one in just two sittings! It's been ages since a TV show has delighted me so much - I just love it. It brings together so many of the things I like such as vampires & folklore - all with a spicy Cajun flavour. Watch it!

TODAY'S TREASURE


The first day of Spring!
Despite the day being grey I could still sense it.....the change. I threw off my jacket and put on a floral scent & went along with a song in my heart.
