My Photo
Name:

I am the Mother of two beautiful grown-up daughters, married to a gentle, caring man for 35yrs and live in the same house we had built in 1976! I love my home, my garden andall my furry chidren (who do not know they are animals!) Two cats, two dogs - in fact the one cat thinks he is a dog too! I am a Victorian Tea Parlour Hostess (and owner) since hospitality, baking and cooking, nurturing and feeding come naturally to me - it makes sense that this is an option to follow. I am currently writing 3 books, a historical novel, an autobiography and a tale about my cat (Sir Tiggermus, who thinks he is a dog!) I have co-ordinated several wedding functions as well as provided the floral arrangements - one of my first loves! Besides all this, I am an avid crafter and sewer. And, I enjoy interacting with people of all ages. Special to my heart are children, of kingergarten age - whom I was lucky enough to interact with for 5 wonderful years - at a nearby school as a teacher/caregiver! My heart and soul are fulfilled with many joys and a vast array of talents. The newsest of these being my new entrepreneurship - my own Tea Room!

I felt my Heart Soar...!

Today, the sun is gently warmer - still cool in the shadow's but the sharp nip in the air has been tamed.  I hung my washing with a lift in my spirits - and feel that Spring is truly just around the corner!  I have had the sprinkler on and moved it from time to time from one bed to another.  I just know that the Inca lilies and the butterfly bushes are thanking me!  I shall soon see their lovely blooms thrusting up above the green patches of leaves I was so generously watering today.  I am determined to sweep away all cobwebs of doubt and negativity from my life as Spring approaches.  In my soul, I know as she approaches, she brings with her new Life, Hope and the promise of Happiness.  To be one of the 'advantaged' I need to be open to receiving her with just the right frame of mind.
I watch the little lizard's darting about amongst my Fairy village, in my Rockery Island, like benign dragons.  They perch themselves upon the higher rock edges to sun themselves, turning first this way - then the other, and I can smile, because I think even they feel the promise of tomorrow.  Each day is a new day - and each day offers us new beginnings - but somehow - the approach of Spring, offers an abundance of new beginnings like no other season does! 
I welcome Spring this year with a new heart (Literally, since it is on the 26th of his month that I suffered my two heart attacks, exactly one year ago!)  I never thought I'd be so full of Life, so much more adventurous and so much more determined to make my Life matter!  I am filled with Joy, and feel totally released in the aftermath of a tragedy, into a resurgence of Life - bursting with eagerness!  Life moves in cycles, we just need to cultivate a tenacity and patience to wait out the difficulties so that we can embrace the Blessings!
