I am cheered each evening with a warm fire in the fireplace.  It has been years since I have lit a fire.  My charming daughter bought two boxes of 3 hour fire logs at Target for my home.

Spent the morning with my creative older sister.  It didn’t take long to resume our intimate and lively conversations. My kind younger sister has returned home after a grueling week of taking care of me. I do wonder if my young mother knew what a gift she gave us with siblings. I suspect her five children’s arrival was unplanned.

I am starting week two of recovery, and already, I am arguing with the doctors about the next step.  Arguing only in my mind since it is hard to break through their protected offices. I do send messages via MY CHART.

Watched the last of HARRY AND MEGAN last night.  Also watched the Ukrainian President Zelensky speaking to the US congress.  Brought tears to my eyes.  How can vicious wars continue?  I imagine myself as an old person slumped in a wheel barrow being rescued by the tall man and the former teenager.
