Good Night

About that End of the Month Thing...

The poll was half and half, so I have reinstated my Facebook and posted a GFM campaign (and I will be posting my Paypal for sharing here, as well). There will be a few people from my previous workplace that will see it, which is...personally rather embarrassing, but that cannot be helped. I will just have to buck up, swallow my pride and roll with it, I suppose.

Anyway, the link to that GFM campaign can be found here:

Help with End of the Month

For those that prefer to send any help that can via Paypal, you can send any and all donations to phoenixdragondreams@gmail.com on Paypal.

I know things are tight for everyone right now and the deadline is decidedly crunchy. That is likely due to me being an idiot and hesitating because of that damnable pride and sense of embarrassment. But I would rather be embarrassed and be safe and fed, than have my pride and all of us be chucked out on our ear.

If you cannot help, I completely understand. If you would be kind enough to spread the word, though, that would help massively!

Thank you, thank you, dear ones - for all that you do. You have saved me in more ways than one over the years - and I have never forgotten that!

*Squishes to All!*

Love~
Mandy

Another sunny day except for the cold wind.

I popped into town today to do another travel agent visit for one of my companies and on completing it I just had to dive into my local Spoons pub for one beer. They had Pale Rider on tap, one of my favourite strong ales.



I then walked back home and listened to some more Scott Walker whilst having a cheese melt jacket potato and salad.

Just Wondering

Do/Did your pet have any favourite hiding places for their toys?

Do you prefer sunny or cloudy days?

Did you like slides as a kid? What about swings?
