Trying Again!!

If you go by the pictures

I'm posting

You will lose your bearings

as I picked them, 

at random, from a lot of photos!

They are pictures from all over

Pembrokeshire 

and from different times of the year!

I've been thinking and thinking 

that I want to write another

blog

but then thought

'but I've got no photos.'

And so the time has passed!!

This afternoon I decided

to write anyway.

Again, I'm apologising that it's been

a long while.

As always, life has not been easy!

I was hospitalised

and from that came the diagnosis

of quite a serious and rare condition.

Not cancer

but not good!

It's taken me a while

not just to recover but, also,

to come to terms with it all!!

So.....

enough about health...

How are all of you I wonder!?

I have to confess that it's been a while since

I looked at any blogs!

What have I been doing?

I've been very involved with scrapbooking

and am on Instagram.

Scrapbooking I can sit down

and take it easy whilst being creative.

I'll show some of my spreads another time.

If you want to look for yourself its....

guess what??...

pembrokeshirelass 

I'll post some pics next time ....

when I'm more organised!!

I'm also back at studying Classics

at the Open University.

I had to defer last year when I was so ill.

Again I am having to relearn Latin...

not my favourite!!

I am also enjoying reading books

for a publishing house.

Yesterday I finished a book that really

impacted me!

It's about the Comfort Women of Korea

who were captured, used and abused 

by the invading Japanese soldiers.

Totally enthralling

but also eye opening

I don't think I will ever forget it!!

If you want to read it

it's called

'The White Chrysanthemum'

A thoroughly recommended book!!

I think that I have probably written enough

for now!

I look forwards to catching up 

with you all again xx
