Lacking a laughing emoji I used the heart.

I was hit with the opposite and just did a great yoga workout.

Oh, Henry, you really don't want to go out for a walk?

Just look at my Bleeding Heart. Exploding with spring beauty.

Had a dream about my own Mother the night before last. She was older, and frail. Her dementia was different, and she was not negative, but rather, caring for her was easy and pleasant, and we had many happy memories together.
Thanks for the lovely visit Mum. Miss you.

Interesting election results in Canada! I think one thing is clear, Canadians are saying they don't want "Career Politicians." Real world experience matters!

its stretching and difficulty seeing well that makes the top part difficult. I didn't even do the lower part of the frame, and had it all close by, I got it all done except 8 pieces that way. Has made it more enjoyable for me. Just tried it this time, I will do it again in the future.

Very Puzzling. Trying a new technique of doing the top half first. Seems to be going well.

Had a family fish and chip supper from Annie's Seafood in Stratford. All delicious, and gluten free. What a wonderful time to have our daughters and their partners all here. Bill and I had the best time, and even all the dogs got on ok. Feeling Blessed. 🥰

TAXES ALL DONE

we don't have the ice, but its been wet and cold today, and did already walk the dog. So lots of little tasks done, and finding places for things since unpacking from my trip. A good day to get things done. Also no cooking, and we have leftovers from three meals to work through. Huzzah

Lion in waiting

thanks to the miracle that allowed us to sleep on the plane home, I was able to stay up to 8 pm last night, then slept most of the night to about 630 am.
I was able to unpack, do laundry, make supper, go shopping today too. Pretty beat at 630 pm, so still me, LOL.

Said goodbye to our lovely guide Hosanna. We loved every minute at Dunia Camp.

Early game viewing drive topped by a surprise breakfast with a view. Dunia Camp is a woman run safari camp on the Serengeti in Tanzania.
