I think I need to adopt that as my new attitude though, and realize that if I don't like the way this camp is run, I can change it. <br /> Thanks for a look into your world, Alja,(such a pretty name!)and thanks too to Tange!Shirl/artophilenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186563166169846621.post-63676767382822861902011-03-04T18:34:44.426+01:002011-03-04T18:34:44.426+01:00Fabulous interview!

Mum's had her toes amputated due to diabetes and is still recovering; my dad's just suffered a stroke in Feb this year.<br />Terrifying thought it is.JuanitaTortillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00918884565822681674noreply@blogger.com
