My return to life -

Two Lost Sheep Found -

When The Past Comes Blasting In -

There's A Parrot On My Computer -
Susan Thom (8,101) Susan Thom Before e mail, when a friend or acquaintance or family member moved, either our phone bills would become astronomical, or we would write and send a card once in a while.
