So true Susan, so brilliantly said. This one in particular, in just one line you conveyed so much, that alone is incredible. But you are my friend. Good luck in the contest, not that you need it but just the same. This is a fave for me, as I look at those bubbles fizzing this New Year I am going to remind myself that this time those resolutions made so enthusiastically every year "Stay" before the bubbles fizzle....Maria xxx
