I like to be informed, even though you are on the other side of the world from me. I do care about people and the issues they face daily. It’s so sad that all our countries can’t work together to help each other with problems like this. I will pray for your rain! I enjoy your blog and seeing the world where I cannot be. I did not know your corner of the world was as beautiful as you show us. Thank you.

I'm SO sorry for all who are affected. I live in Texas, where we had severe drought for 4 years. Thankfully, it ended, but we still try to conserve where we can. We were curious, living so close to the ocean, why the country does not have a desalination plant ? Where does your water come from ? Rain only? Stored somewhere ?

Blogging is time-consuming but so worthwhile when we make lovely friends and share great ideas. <br />I love what you have done around your home for Christmas. My color scheme for many years was neutral once I changed to 'shabby chic' with all white slipcovers, however I've been redoing my living room this year and brought back some color - dining room still neutral - and so my Christmas decor has brought in a lovely rusty red which actually I'm enjoying with my new blues. <br />We don't have snow either, and only a little rain lately - hope you get some cooler weather soon.<br />Have a wonderful holiday and all the best for the New Year - WHEN I HOPE TO SEE YOU BACK HERE!<br />Mary -<br />Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915239653283205065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5134826733437250835.post-59677514127062739522017-12-22T15:44:16.238+02:002017-12-22T15:44:16.238+02:00Welcome back Sharon, I have missed your wonderful ...Welcome back Sharon, I have missed your wonderful posts.
