 Loves
My family, especially my daughters Libby and Mandy
My job
being by the sea
walking in the country
dancing in the rain
music
reading
writing (wouldn't be here if I didn't)
being with friends
dark nights by the fire with a good book and wine
long soaks in the bath
the wind through a windchime
the sun on my face
all wildlife
Hates
nothing but a few things irritate not worth mentioning
Has had to re-invent myself following the death of my husband 2 years ago and I've learned that I am a stronger person than I thought and that true friends stand by you when others walk away.
I have had to learn to do things by myself and I've made solo journeys, surprised how happy and content I can be with my own company.
My philosophy - CARPA DEUM (seize the day) - for there may never be a tomorrow

HI guys
Just a quick update for all those who have entered my contest - there will be a small delay in judging as my computer has gone down at home and I don't have time at work to read through the many wonderful entries I'm sure there are - but I will get it done - just bear with me.
Thanks
Janette
