In life, there are cruel disappointments.
Cruel disappointment
Leaf tree curl is back again! 😦 😦
And, then, there are serendipitous moments

Does one ever outweigh the other? 🙂
What is the balance?

Balance – yes, it’s all about that, isn’t it. Not an easy thing, but we must always try, always strive for balance. I have taken a year off…trying to regain some of it. And, I’m feeling a bit better now, a bit more relaxed and able to look forward to things. I hope you are doing OK.
Ann Christine, good to know you are starting to see some benefits from your time off. Are you able to spend more time with your parents now?
Yes, I am. I’m taking my mother out as often as I can. Her husband is out and about playing bridge and boule and things my mother doesn’t do. She sings and goes to gymnastics and they both go on trips together with other retired people. We walk the dog every day together. Her memory is faltering nowadays – the usual way…I can tell her about something and the minute after she is asking the same thing. Healthy otherwise. I’m grateful.
How lovely you can walk the dog together every day. Times to be treasured. 🙂
Yes, indeed. The only times she doesn’t join me is when it’s raining hard and wintertime when you easily slip and fall.
Perhaps she will want you to join her with singing and gymnastics. 🙂
Maybe…but I workout on the gym with my daughter, and singing in her choir is not for me, I think. I see your point, though!
Aww, how lovely you have time to work out with your daughter, too. Looks as though you have a good balance of individual and joint activities.
I’m trying. But it is not always easy. I guess it is this thing with us women – never to think we do enough…
Indeed, we are very demanding of ourselves. 🙂
