I was OUT on errands and such, for nearly the whole day with Rog and then Morgan joined after lunch. I've lots to relate, but will have to do it tomorrow.)

BUT I have to tell you about a very precious kind thing. Mailed on the 4th, received at the PO sometime, I got it today on our weekly PO run. Fast service; A small envelope came from Houston and when I opened it I was, as our friends cross the pond say, "Gobsmacked" and started to cry. I couldn't even talk. Maggie sent me the most beautiful, perfect amethyst pendant. It's my fav. stone (she didn't know)set in a    very elegant, yet simple setting of silver.

If you hold it to the light there are slight variations of colour absolutely perfect for my visualisations of the purple/violet light, the transmuting flame of a higher power. There are also some very moving occlusions which, to me,look as though they are dancing. Maggie defintely "tuned" in when she chose this for me and I am so greatfull.

Maggie, thank you so much. My life is so enriched by my friends here.
