Bloggers PhotoLoves

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

'Season's Contest' Judged - At Last
Blog Posted:11/30/2012 3:04:00 AM

 
Many, many, many, apologies to all those who entered my 'Season's of Mists' contest who have patiently been awaiting the results.

I am pleased to say that normal internet service has been restored at home and the contest has now been judged.

There were some cracking pieces of work entered that I thoroughly enjoyed reading and it was hard to pick just a handful so there are a few extra winners and honorable mentions.

Many congrats to all those attaining a winning spot and thank you again for entering the contest and for your patience.

I wish you all a very merry yuletime and hope 2013 brings many blessings for you and your families.

Janette
