  1. I've followed you all year. Well done. Only a few days to go.

    1. Thanks for following me! I'm so glad the year is almost done. Researching and scheduling daily posts has taken much more time than I expected. I need a break. I don't know how Janet Reid does it.

      Happy New Year to you and your family!
