Three good things in spite of everything:

1. Wild swimming in a special place
2. Self-seeding astonishment
3. Endlessly, water dragons

Learning to notice and then look slowly.

It is rather interesting to ponder that it is an accepted truism that "good news doesn't sell"... and yet I am finding that things like #3GoodThings, #Bloomscrolling and #Caturday are FAR from boring.

I suppose it is that mainstream media are catering to the prurient desire for gossip.

#3goodThings

Three Week's post partial knee replacement today
Saw physio who was very pleased with progress. Advised I need to do more outdoor walking
Break in the rain, took a stroll with my husband in a soggy but beautiful Beechwood park to the cafe for hot chocolate and a Welsh cake to celebrate

I'm heartbroken as my dad passed away late last night. But, after some thought, I can still find #3goodthings

1. Dad is at peace now and for that I am grateful.

2. I got to spend these last years with him under my roof, creating memories I’ll hold onto forever.

3. Love doesn’t end here—the love he gave continues to shape me, even in the hardest moments.

Bonus: I’m holding close the memory of our last real vacation together at what used to be my grandparent's cabin on Lake Superior — and this photo reminds me that even in grief, there is still beauty to look toward.

A photograph of a rocky Lake Superior shoreline at dusk, taken near the family cabin. Soft waves roll in toward the smooth stones, reflecting the cool blues and purples of the early evening. Along the horizon, a band of warm orange and pink light glows beneath layers of dark, textured clouds. The scene feels peaceful and expansive, capturing the quiet beauty of one of the last true vacations we shared together.

1. In news that I forgot to share here, I was scheduled for my long overdue sinus surgery this morning.

2. Said surgery did take place, and the ENT surgeon said it was "textbook."

3. I have Jell-O. 😁

#3goodthings

our snow is nice and fluffy

For the first time in years I saw roving bands of boys with shovels and people walking down the center of the street with their toddlers and young children

found some valentine's Day cards in my card stash and picked out cuuuute Valentine's Day gifts. Happy to have it done!

On Friday while mom-sitting, a molar announced its discontent & became progressively more angry over the weekend, when our city shut down for the winter storm. I finally called the dentist's emergency line this morning. He provided treatment advice which has helped minimize the pain, and instructions to call tomorrow when they re-open to get an ASAP appointment. Whew! Pain relief rocks!

Christmas pounds melted off after 3 days of near-fasting! 😃

Safe, warm, got power & light.

#3GoodThings

1. The WiFi seems to be working now. It was kind of nice to just be offline most of the weekend. Probably I should be taking breaks more often.
2. The vet put Vera (cat) on a diet because she got so round she was having trouble cleaning herself and she is now able to independently clean her butt, so that’s one less item for my to do list and she’s much happier.
3. Red pandas exist.
