InterestsI receive great pleasure from writing, giving gifts, pottering, blogging, gardens, and kitty cats. Sunny winter days and summery twilight evenings. Reading. Good conversation over coffee. Children laughing and happy dogs out for their walks. Soft rainy days and robins in the spring. Knowing I've touched someone in a way that encourages, strengthens, and helps them see the beauty too...
