I hate crutches, they make my armpits and shoulders both hurt. And I've almost fell down the stairs trying to navigate with them more than once.

Nice job!

In response to "Old Dog. New Tricks"

That's so funny. It's also true of cats. My older cat won't climb up but now that our kitten does, he's been climbing and exploring places he never did before. Sometimes they just need the right incentive.

In response to "Is there an answer?"

People here in the United States were warned about climate change years ago. Our Vice President in 1993, Al Gore, was an environmentalist. He talked incessantly about the issue warning something needed to be done to avoid destroying our planet. People laughed at him denying there was any such problem. He was right, they were wrong. I need to answer this prompt if I have time today. Have a good one!

In response to "Love "

59 years is incredible.

I can't imagine a love that intense either. And I'm very much in love with my husband. It's my second marriage, we've been together 20 years and married 16 years. If I had foolishly stayed in my first marriage it would have been 50 years. I left him before our 30th.

I've read a lot of his sonnets and wondered the same thing about the woman. I didn't realize there were 100 of them Kåre Enga in Udon Thani

that's a lot of mushy stuff.

I'm sorry I knew that but blanked it out with all the chaos. Good luck with the Surgery!

I’m not involved in GOT Lyn. I have surgery next week and will be missing in action fora week or so. I just reviewed Lilly’s contribution last night.

I have never been able to embroider, though I tried valiantly in youth - a lovely skill.
That's heartbreaking, your shrunken jumper gift -

In response to "Love "

There are different types of love. Her in the western colony we obsess with romantic/sexual love. The sex, however, must never be directly shown; we're cultural prudes.

Neruda wrote 100 sonnets for his future wife.

I mostly love (pine) from afar.

In response to "Love "

Hi, enger
I wonder how many sonnets Neruda wrote. She must have been quite a gal!
Love is such a complex concept. What is love? The oft asked question to which no one has an answer. Would it be to sacrifice oneself to save another? I can accept a parent might do that to save a child. However that reminds me of the time I caught my ten year old son poking a lighted stick into a jerry can of petrol. I screamed, “don’t do that!” And I ran from the garage! So much for a mother’s love.

My day

PROMPT November 26th

Today is Thanksgiving here in the United States. I know this is the prompt for tomorrow, but I'm going to give you something to be thankful for. The prompt for tonight is to be yourself. Write whatever is on your mind. Provide your own prompt, so-to-speak. I look forward to reading your posts!

Okay no prompt today. That means I can ramble on about my day then. Went to the shops. Huge mistake! Every man, woman, child and their dogs were there. It’s Black Friday of course.
Didn’t buy a thing because the parking was crazy, it was very hot ( 36 degrees) and I decided it wasn’t necessary to be there. Normally at this time of the year my Christmas shopping would be done and wrapped. But this year for some reason I’ve hardly given it a thought. It looks like either a trip to the Liquor Store for gifts and the supermarket for vouchers. I know, no thought whatsoever but that’s how Im feeling. Maybe the Christmas spirit will hit me later.
My singing group will be singing at the op shop on Tuesday, maybe I can pick up some gifts there!
We’re having a break up parties for the end of the year for singing group and my writing group so I may get into the spirit then.

Grateful

PROMPT November 25th

We all have something to be thankful about. In the United States, we celebrate Thanksgiving today. Tell us what you are most thankful for.

I’m thankful to live in Australia and in particular Western Australia. We have been blessed compared to the rest of the World. Geography has a lot to do with our “luck” I suppose. We were able to observe what was happening in the Northern Hemisphere long before Covid arrived here. The separation of Western Australia from the East Coast gave us here in the West an even better advantage. We as a State have been able to say who can come here, ensuring whoever does come in has quarantined and been vaccinated.
Of course folks here still complain about restrictions and lack of liberty. Antivaxers March in the streets, threaten our government officials and their families. But I’m thankful for everything our State Government has done to keep businesses thriving. Local tourism has never been so busy. Yet people still complain.
I have family in the UK where people still die daily and 40,000 people a day still get the virus.
