It's the growing stamina that counts most heavily. You are more alert in general and open to the good stuff. Hurrah!!

Feeling good is a challenge when Iโ€™m not moving enough. Moving enough is a challenge when Iโ€™m down and troubled, as James Taylor sings.

Today I went to the movies with my nephew and his two little girls, 5 and 7. We saw Snow White. A 2 hour escape.

Spending time with youngsters really does help.

Depends on the person. Nothing saps my energy more or faster than children. Also, they're all so LOUD these recent decades.

I enjoy seeing the moon and it always thrills me, for some reason, to see it in the daytime. I found a moonrise calendar on the web to clue me in on the best viewing times. Tonight is the full moon so it's a double thrill.

Oooh, love to see the moon when it is full. My father had a song he always sang when we looked at the moon together. "I see the moon and the moon sees me, and the moon see's somebody I want to see." And then of course Good Night Moon the evening book for our daughter, and I would sing the song to her. Such good memories!

Interesting, I've never seen an amaryllis growing outdoors. Funny how commercialization of the plant has set my prejudice. So glad you noticed it!

Yes, and I now I've noticed they have a bunch of other plants right under the hedge so I am wondering if they simply put indoor plants out over the years, so I am going to look to see if anything else blooms.

Hurrah! Huzzah! Yay! Canada has a stand-up leader in PM Mark Carney. My moment of delight waking up this AM. Mark has a Doctorate like Mexico's Sheinbaum ... smart.
