Weekly Reflections
Reasons to be cheerful ...
- remembering Ced on his birthday and celebrating that he lived, that I knew him, and that I was so lucky to spend 36 years of my life with him
- long chats with friends
- chatting through the fence with my neighbours
- finding a gardener to maintain the garden for me
- an impromptu socially distanced picnic with L and P in my garden
- texting with my sister
- blue skies and fluffy white clouds
- a gift of two magnolia plants from a neighbour
- winning the choir quiz this week
I am grateful ...
- for the technology that allows me to keep in touch with everyone
- for supermarket deliveries
- for friendships, old and new
Well done with the quiz. It sounds like you have had some lovely things happen this week - I'm glad.

It's been a good week one way or another. 😊
DeleteWonderful things to be cheerful and grateful! Congratulations on winning the choir quiz!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I only scored 49 out of 72 so was expecting to come near the bottom but it seems that everyone else struggled this week as well!
DeleteI do love it when you can tick items off a list as done, well done on the quiz win.
ReplyDeleteThanks. It was a good week for getting some of the bigger things ticked off. The only disappointment was that the roofer failed to turn up as promised.
DeleteA lovely way to remember your Ced. 36 years is certainly a very long time. D & I have been together 20 years this year and so much has happened in that time but it feels like a blink of an eye. Well done with the Quiz. As you say its great we have the technology to be able to communicate whilst sitting in our own front room.

I always do something special to remember him but usually on my own, so it was different but lovely to remember him with others.
DeleteTechnology is proving to be an important part of life.

Translation: There are always reasons to be happy ... we just need health ... and the days offer us a thousand opportunities to fulfill ourselves through the simplest things ... but that always end up being the ones that will have the most meaning!
