by Amarantha 1 year agoYep. Nobody here but us chickens, Mockingbird. Time to go sleep I guess. Night-night. xx -
by Amarantha 1 year agoGood morning, Mockingbird. Of course it's more than okay to offer a prayer for my sister. Thank you so much. Big teary-eyed hug. xoxo

by Amarantha 1 year agoHi Mockingbird. You can copy the dragon picture anytime; I downloaded it from the 'net for free. Lovely aint she?
As for sleep ... not getting a lot at the moment due to a worrying family problem. My lovely sister just started chemo and she is in Canada so I'm on the 'net at odd times supporting her and her family as much as I can. We have a very special connection. It doesn't do my head much good and I'm having difficulty thinking straight.
I suppose I should ask folk to forgive me in advance for any weird stuff I write in the small hours. Thanks for your interest, for the tea and muffins. :-) oxox -
