OOOOOOH - secrets secrets....


I HAVE SOMETHING MEGA TO TELL YOU!!!! But not today - Ha! I'll tell you tomorrow. Here's a clue: I'm not pregnant and I haven't become a millionaire overnight. That's two clues. Can you guess what it is yet? Tee-hee, I'm as bad as Mimuther.

Our first Christmas card arrived today, from Keith's brother in Canada. His is always the first to arrive. He and Keith are very close, more so as years go by, it's a pity they can't meet up often. We had the pleasure of a visit from Stewart this summer and we treasured every minute. Keith had to be at work much of the time but Stew and I gabbed non-stop about all kinds of everything and I was his driver for his trips looking up other relations. I think he was a bit scared!! Keith has another brother and two sisters, all of whom live locally and none of whom he sees from one year to the next. His sisters won't even speak to him (or me, or Stewart), we don't know why. I know he wishes it were not so but what to do about it?

In a minute I am going to eat my lunch and then I am going to do sweet fanny adams all afternoon and watch Diagnosis Murder and then Murder,She Wrote, Columbo, Weakest Link. It means a bit of channel-hopping (aagh, is that work?) but I haven't watched these shows - which apparently make me some kind of geek - for almost a week now and I'm getting withdrawal symptoms. So forgive me for being so self-indulgent (I haven't got any chocolate, more's the pity) but I have to go. Now!

Oh what is that secret Angie? It is something really good I just know it! I often wonder why families don`t speak. It has happened in my family and in Jim`s. One of my aunts (married to my Dad`s brother) never liked me as a child and as an adult she told everyone that I was `hoity toity`...lol! Oh well I was never that keen on her either...lol! Take care. :o)

Love Sandra xxxx

Ahh, I love those TV shows too. Too bad that we can't watch them together.

Have a fun time. Hugs, Lura
