You both have a lot of problems and my heart goes out to both of you. I feel guilty being miserable with my incessant cough caused by Bronchitis and Asthma (caught on the bus tour) After one failed week of antibiotics, I now have a new one to try but I should be better by Thursday whereas you and Kirsten have a much worse future. I sincerely hope the joy that Allanah brings to you both will help ease the pain and anguish.<br />She is a gorgeous little girl and oozes intelligence.<br />A week in Ballina would brighten anyone's soul and I'm glad that you had the opportunity.Good luck with your story writing too.diane bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12002292118984909883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8550214407269277609.post-53832720972478914862011-07-13T02:27:58.515+10:002011-07-13T02:27:58.515+10:00"in possession of turbulence" is a lovel..."in possession of turbulence" is a lovely Austenesque phrase, Julie. <br />What a wonderful time-away for you. I hope you do take Lesley up on her offer.<br />Your mention of a story on dementia made me realize how much of my youngest niece's and nephew's childhood revolved around the care facility in which my parents lived out their final years. The children were 5 and 3 when their Nana and Tata went into care, and the residents of the dementia unit in particular loved to see them come to visit. Even after my parents had both died, my niece, by then 8, insisted she and her friends should go back to visit the people who had been her grandfather's friends and neighbours in his final years.<br />Good for you — 11 drafts means you are working very hard at perfecting what could be a very important story.<br />Luv — K<br /><br />Kay, Alberta, Canada<br />An Unfittie's Guide to Adventurous TravelKay L.

BC: It is...Letty: not really. Never been my style.<br /><br />BC: It is, isn't it? I can imagine you up there in your attic, typing away and sucking pencil ends! What really intruiges me, is that these 'others' read my m/s and all see something quite different from what I had envisaged. And this gives me yet more ideas ... <br /><br />Margaret: I quite enjoy the colder weather, not necessarily the wind, though.<br /><br />Joan: I have another friend who retires at the beginning of August. She is hoping to go diving over archaeological ship-wrecks! I think I would settle for your list, instead.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09513648613788716017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8550214407269277609.post-52870370615987645972011-07-10T18:29:23.127+10:002011-07-10T18:29:23.127+10:00Last week my contract was extended to the end of D...Last week my contract was extended to the end of December than that's it.
