the comfort of strangers ...

There are many definitions for the word stranger, one being 'any person whom one does not know'.
o
I hope you don't mind me calling you a stranger, but I sort of know you and I sort of don't.

I like the fact I have virtual friends.
o
Part of the fun is to build up a picture of just how you might look. Skinny, well built, short, tall, young, old ... not once have I ever got it right.
o
Part of the fun is to discover the personality you have, by the style in which you write and in what you write about ... finding we can be very much alike.


After reading about my postcard collection, and knowing I was feeling a bit down in the dumps, Sarah from The World of Twiggypeasticks e-mailed me these sweet Mabel Lucie Attwell compilations, accompanied by a smile and friendship.

Sarah's thoughtfulness made my day.


A big thank you to those who left kind words on my Mum post. I lost count of how many howls I had during the day, but there were many.
o
Your thoughtfulness made my day.

These are just a few of the reasons why I won't give up on my blog ... not just yet anyway.

the generosity of blog friends ...

I have been so lucky to win another giveaway! This time from Ginny who has a lovely blog called Sweet Myrtle.

After discovering the art of making Morsbags, Ginny so kindly decided to make five to give away, each one using a different material.

Look at the one Ginny chose for me, and how did she know I have a lot of blue and cream going on in my kitchen? Intended for bringing shopping home, or taking books back to the library, mine will be used for storing bits 'n bobs in.

Thanks Ginny. I am so pleased with my Morsbag!



The card Ginny sent along with the package tied up with string, goes very well with my kitchen decor too!
