You’re not going to believe this. Keeley looked in my cupboard and found the needle and thread. She didn’t tell me.

I saw her mending the dress herself. I didn’t know she could sew!

The hotel sewing kits were right at the back — where she put them! I didn’t know the cupboard went back that far.

I found some things I thought had been thrown away, but the thing that made me happiest was the collection of photocopied quotes that my brother had given me.

I’m excited to start on them again.

In my retirement, I enjoy editing for writers other than my children. My main roles are Editor of the Challenged and True Travel Tales. I also like to write.
