December 2nd, 2023 topped off our Christmas Craft Fair outings. Book sales of my ‘Seaside Glitter’ and it’s sequel ‘Seaside Christmas’ exceeded my expectations. Between our Acadia Hall Lower Sackville, Findley Center Dartmouth and St Ignatius Christmas Craft fairs I sold over fifty books. However the greatest reward was having my Elsie at my side selling her woolen mittens, hats, socks, and assorted sidelines. We both did amazingly well. Thanks go out to Elsie’s sister Carrie who assisted me at Acadia Hall. In October my Elsie’s cancer returned. Amazingly the surgery she underwent removed all the cancer. Elsie’s healing has been amazing and much better than experienced fourteen years past. The above knee amputation Elsie underwent is not slowing her down. Soon she’ll start working towards getting her new prosthetic leg. Meanwhile at the Findley Center and St Ignatius Parish Hall craft fair she boosted her sales and helped promote sales of my books while energizing visitors to our tables and energizing my days with her positivity and companionship. Merry Christmas everyone. An abundance of Thanks go out to all who are supporting us throughout Elsie’s surgery and ongoing healing. Writing is my passion, but my true Blessing is definitely the lady pictured in the photo above at my side.
