Out of sight,out of mind-Nope!

Midnight chat with the birthday girl,Anna, check. Assignment check-ish, to be completed during holier hours. A few plans on what the next day would look like and then  Linda hit the sack.

For when I am weak, then I am strong

About two weekends ago, I visited one of my aunt’s so I could spend time with her and her children. She had recently been diagnosed with a back problem and we had lost a relative who was staying with her. I thought tea,(we both love tea) cake and some 'kaboozi' would go a long way …
