AFTER DREAMING ABOUT MOLEY, TODAY SHE RECEIVED A CHRISTMAS CARD FROM CASEY WHO LIVES IN NYC.

These two women, Moley and Casey, would have enjoyed each others' company, both cut from the same cloth of old style manners and kindness, both having a deep religious faith, both doing a serious amount of charitable work and both being a good and loyal friend to many people.

Casey moved back to the States a long time ago, it will be sixteen years this year and the last time she saw them was between Christmas and New Year 2002 in Sarasota, Florida. They've exchanged cards at Christmas and Easter but have not been able to meet up.

So after her vivid dream about Moley, it was 'funny' to receive Casey's card today, with two photos in it, one of herself and Tom taken in Ireland and the other of their daughter, Shannon, taken recently with her two boys.

She looked at her watch, it was 2.30pm, with the five hour time difference, it was now a perfectly civilized hour to call someone in the States and she dialed a number in NYC.

He answered the phone and she said his name followed by her name.. there was a nano second of silence before he said "Oh.. How wonderful, how  are you?"

They talked for half an hour, catching up on each others news. And, oh boy, what news there was to tell. Much too private for her to blog about but suffice to say, the 'folks in the black hats' will get their comeuppance and the 'folks in the white hats' will be ok, in fact, they'll be much better than ok.

How strange to dream about a friend and then to receive a card the same day from another. And she was so glad that she had, for it prompted her to call them and she was, therefore, able to wish the family a very 'Happy New Year'. 


The fact that a great number of her friends are no longer living in the UK or are now dead doesn't stop her thinking about them and it certainly didn't stop her praying for all of them on New Years' Eve. 

And on a completely different subject, I don't know where you live but we're experiencing very severe weather here, with incredibly strong winds, there'll be no gardening done this weekend, that's for sure.

She'll work instead in our sitting room, she spent a good half hour in there today and came out with a large bag of children's clothes and shoes plus 
some adult clothing that she is keeping to Michele the next time she and Peter drive to London. 

There's a plate of treats calling me, I shall be off about my tumtum business and hope to be back soon.

Stay safe and be kind. Call a friend whom you haven't spoken to for some time. A real friend, not a make-believe FB kind.

She is going to call Fanny in Majorca, who had a doctor's appointment today, as she wants to know how it went and how her oldest friend is doing, it's 
what friends do, they care for each other and then, she'll call Caroline.

YumYum here I come.

GeeGee Parrot.
