We'll wish for health and happiness

 We should celebrate every year that we made it through and every year that we’re happier and healthier.

Calisa Repens aka Pink Lady

 Over the past 5 years or so i have been planting Calisa Repens aka Pink Lady.  They need to be replanted every now and then as they grow older and become not so pretty.  Currently I have 17 pots but only these 5 are in their prime, looking good.

A curious dream

Last night I had a dream.  There was a large group of people, waiting to be transported somewhere.  I was reluctant to get into the transport bubble. That was an individual transport bubble.  However, finally, after some persuasion from fellow travelers I got into one of the bubbles with much trepidation.  Nevertheless I felt very comfortable after getting into the bubble and the bubble started to fly, over fields, trees and buildings.  Inside my own bubble I could see other bubbles flying about too.  Finally, after a short while, my bubble landed.  Its landing place?  My bedroom.  The bubble ride was very comfortable, the landing was comfortable and definitely my bed too.  I woke up, it was 3.35 am and I felt alert and comfortable.

An ordeal

2023 December 20 was nothing short of an ordeal for me.  Alot of anxiety before and after.  My 2 sons were present throughout to give me moral support.  Inevitable in the aging process?
