My name is Jaye Marie, the 'oily rag' and one half of the establishment that is https://jenanita01.com.

When I was growing up, I wanted to be so many things, a doctor, a pianist, or an artist. In all my 75 years, I have had so many jobs and hobbies that my family call me Worzel Gummidge, convinced I have a selection of different heads in a cupboard somewhere!
I love to make things, whether it is something to wear, eat or simply enjoy looking at. These days however, time is becoming my enemy, but I can still stretch it a bit when I need to!

I enjoy reading many different genr ...more

Better Days are Coming!

I could feel the stirrings of something new and very different yesterday. I didn’t dwell on it too much, as there hasn’t been much good news lately, and I didn’t want to scare it off.

But even though I tried to ignore it, the feeling persisted. I was beginning to feel very different. Dare I say, that I felt far more optimistic than I had in ages?

Less resignation, acceptance, and long suffering.
