It was so wonderful to be able to follow you on your travels, and it truly warmed my heart! Yes, and the first of many wonderful adventures for you!! Listening to you talk and then hearing that beautiful song, it truly makes me smile, and I am thankful for you, just being you! ❤️❤️🥰
Aww thanks so much Ka for always being on my team...you are so good to me and I'm so grateful to you always...sending loads of love to you Karen and thank you so much for being so good to me....Someday we will meet xx and it will be fab x
You’re not gonna believe this, but I had entertained coming to meet you when you were in Boston. But I had to think about reality. I’m the one that has eight dogs at my house. It would have been a 3 1/2 hour drive one way And then 3 1/2 hours back to my house. Because of the dogs, I could not entertain staying over somewhere. And then the snow hit!! I was extremely discouraged to say the least. But yes, there will be another time, whether it’s here in the states or over there in Ireland! It will happen! ❤️
It's wonderful to read your story & to especially see that LWS writers have bodies and not just floating heads! 😂 I'm glad you had a wonderful time. Next time, visit Chicago. You will have a huge audience here and many places to meet them, e.g., our Irish American Heritage Center (https://irish-american.org/) and numerous pubs. Irish immigrants helped build this city, and as far as I know, we're the only city that dyes our river neon green for St. Patrick's Day (https://tinyurl.com/2p2owkha). 😮 I'm ethnically half Irish myself!
Hi Louise, welcome home. you sure had an amazing trip from what I see and hear. America and her people took you to their heart but that does not surprise me in the least. I keep telling everyone what a truly amazing lady you are and in all of this adventure Louise don't forget you were the common denominator, in other words you were the thread weaving through every encounter and your love and that of Granny Nancy shone through at every get together, every event. Have a nice rest now and take good care of yourself until the next time. God bless, Hugs and loadsa love. Martina
Love you lots Martina xx I'm so lucky to have you in my life and I know that our two women in heaven are so thrilled we got to meet....Def another meet up on the cards over the summer. it's a must xx Sending love to you and you are always in my thoughts and prayers x
Thanks sooo much Claire for your beautiful words and support always. You are the best and I appreciate it so much. Sending lots of love and light your way xx
