Save the last dance for me?
I love these cruets, don’t you? I’m dancing tonight. Feel the love over at Debbie’s place. Happy weekend!

All I want for Christmas is…
Nothing much, really! A little more love in the world would be good. Peace and harmony and all those things that go with the Christmas message. No-one going hungry or without shelter. No children that are unloved or unwanted. If only the Christmas fairy could make it so!
I haven’t written my ‘Dear Santa’ letter yet. Maybe I’d better hurry. Wishing you all a Christmas packed with peace and love. I’ll be walking again on Monday. Hope to see you then.

Tis the season to be jolly!
And jolly I have been! But I’m starting to run out of steam. Yesterday evening was spent in the lovely company of the lady friends I have known since school days. We ate and we drank. We laughed and we hugged. As always, when together, we were jolly. None of us knows what tomorrow may bring. So I’m wishing you, as I wished them, a wonderful Christmas and the happiest of New Years. Peace and love!
Almost time to climb that chimney, Santa!
I seem to have a thing about reindeer this Christmas!
See what I mean?
This one’s an old, old friend
And this one was among the finery at Chatsworth.
Tonight I’m just going to curl up in front of the TV to watch the final of “Strictly”. As I have from the very beginning, I’m supporting Natalie, but it doesn’t really matter who wins. I just watch and admire.
I may find time to pop in on your blogs, but if I miss anyone, go right ahead and be jolly without me. And don’t forget Cate at Show My Face!

From a wedding to a funeral
Last week I shared with you the joy of my daughter’s Victorian style wedding. On Monday the husband of a lifelong friend died, after she had cared for him at home, very courageously. On Thursday we attended a moving ceremony, and said our goodbyes. So much can change in a week.
All week long I’ve been wondering if I should share these six words, which have played again and again in my head. Yesterday evening I spent some time looking at my daughter’s photos of her Venice honeymoon. When “we girls” were together after the funeral we talked about “old times”, as we always do. And, of course, the subject of Lisa and the wedding was raised. She sometimes lay in her carry-cot at the “Girl’s Nights” we held in each other’s homes back then. We still do, though the children are long grown. I felt that I needed to share these six words this week, and to share with them a couple of her beautiful photographs.
Lisa in Venice
The Palazzo Ducale, covered in snow
Did you ever see more beautiful rooftops?
These masked revellers were beautiful in white too
And wasn’t this lady pretty in pink?
But, of course, it all comes back to Lisa
Life is short. Love while you can.
