It’s Saturday and the weather is fine here. I thought I’d drop you a line. I called my cousin Clifford yesterday. His sister Sandra is in hospital from a stroke. I’m afraid she’s seriously ill. It was her birthday yesterday. She’s on a respirator and is asleep almost all the time. I don’t think sheContinue reading “Days before Christmas”

At last, Christmas
It’s almost Christmas. I have had happier Christmases in the past. All the Christmases after my Mom died have been null to me.
