Front cover thrill

The image 'Time & Tide' is a bit darker than the original, still a thrill to see the book published!

New Book

The move was as stressful as any other although I should be used to moving as this was my 28th!!!

Finished reading ‘People of the Book’ by Geraldine Brooks. What a ‘couldn’t put down’ & didn’t want it to end’ book, thoroughly enjoyable. Am now into the 4^th volume of Jean M Auel’s ‘The Plains of Passage’.
Barbara (Yates Rothwell) called in today with a couple of copies of ‘No Time for Pity and other Tales’ her new book with my image on the front cover. She also gave me lots of book marks & some postcards. Hope I can find everyone’s address.

Settled in.

All is well, computer fixed, most things working & have just unpacked last box of 'stuff'. According to the owners the house looks 'happy'!! Pot plants have helped.

Minor set backs.

Have been 'home' now for ten days but only just had phone connected this morning. Not that that will help with being on line as I have blown up the computer!!! Think it is a faulty switch so now waiting for electrician. Ebony is OK & so am I, very happy here in spite of a few setbacks. All for now, back later in the week.

Almost there!

I had a very busy day today spent packing. I don’t believe all the STUFF I have collected over the years! Goodness knows where I’m going to put it all. At least I was able to get the keys of the new place & made a few trips ‘up the road’. Couldn’t have done it without a very good friend who helped me. Bless you Merle. Ebony disappeared under bushes in the back garden when the window cleaner came I hope she does the same tomorrow when the removal guys come & move all the furniture, boxes etc. I’m off now to make an omelet, take some pain killers & chill out in front of TV. Hope to catch up tomorrow eveing if Telstra gets me fixed up.
