My Mam, Carmel, passed away on the morning of Nov 21st last after a short illness. She was gentle, kind, loving, caring and giving. We will miss her terribly. I don't think it has dawned on us yet. I will miss the long phone calls, the chats, the gossip, the visits. May she rest in peace.

A couple of weeks ago, I spent a most relaxing weekend in Co. Wexford with two friends. Despite many stressful things at present, it was really lovely to go away. Walks on the beach, short drives and shopping in Enniscorthy with plenty of coffee, wine and good food thrown in. I'm no writer, but one morning while walking on the beach in glorious November sunshine and crisp air, I was inspired. Flimsy, frothy, floaty bubbles Whirl about on the pebbly beach Left by the sandy grey sea Breaking, snowy, foamy white, to the shore A sunny crisp November morning Walking, crunching the pebbles Fresh, clean, crisp air Exhilerating the senses Ger

My package for the Fave things swap on Ravelry arrived yesterday. A lovely red scarf, Knitting Rules book, yummy sock yarn, scented candles, dpns, some coffee, lovely stitch markers and some doggie treats for my dog. Thank you Kellie so much for my lovely parcel.
