Granny Annie said...- I have too many family moments of rejoicing to list. I do have one surprising moment outside of family and that was learning one of my digital art paintings will appear in a book that is in the process of being published now.

Changes in the wind said...- Getting up at 2:00 am and seeing on my phone Trump won.
Olga Hebert said...- Not to sound too woo-woo, but I try to find gratitude for every moment. Of course, sorry changes, I lost in that effort when I learned the tweeter elect had won the election.

Lisa said...- Sitting beside my 8-year-old grandson playing video games when he just spontaneously said, "I love you Nana." Yeah, that was the best moment of the year.

- Finally giving in and having a hearing test and finding out I'm not going deaf after all, my hearing is close to normal and I don't need hearing aids. More recently my health insurance paid the full cost of my new reading glasses.

ReplyDeleteOkay, I think I've got it.
ReplyDeleteCaitlin flinched as a blue spark of electricity shot from the hydro tower above. That could be a potential disaster in the greenhouse she gasped. I’d best get over there quickly. If memory serves, the last time this happened we lost nearly all our winter roses.
Matthew met Caitlin at the door to the greenhouse complex. “ It was a terrorist attack in Carterville.” he shouted. “This is an outrage. Do you realize how much cash we stand to lose?”
Caitlin shook her head sadly. “ Honest Matthew; is that all you care about? What about all those people in Carterville? Aren’t they worth more than a few frozen red roses. So our heat and light and the fan went out. Big deal What was the intention of the terrorists? I can tell you it wasn’t to destroy our cash crop. Their intention was to cause death and destruction in yet another innocent settlement. You can’t begin to draw a parallel between what the people of Carterville are experiencing and our situation here. “
“You’re right of course Caitlin. Let’s get over there and see what we can do to help.”
“Good, and then I’ll help you get the greenhouse sorted out.”
My trip to Vegas this year was a dream come true for me.
