24 Sept: Ten Things of Thankful

words "10 THING OF THANKFUL" with pink peonies
Ten Things of Thankful 15-24 September (in no particular order)

1. An ancient woodland within walking distance.
2. The worst of the potholes were filled while I was in France.
3. Like-minded friends.
4. Begonias and dahlias still blooming.
5. Tomatoes in the greenhouse are perfectly ripe.
6. Tomato and mayonnaise sandwiches on homemade sourdough.
7. That I don’t have to beat laundry against a rock at the stream.
8. My car’s annual insurance premium didn’t increase.
9. That my husband agreed to read the “Argument”.
10. The best 9-day-long birthday ever (although it’s the first time I’ve celebrated my birthday for 9-days) … next year I might try 10.

  2. Nine days straight birthday celebration? Wow. My birthday comes and goes without causing a ripple. I have outlived all my relatives; I feel like Lestat. https://rolandyeomans.blogspot.com/2024/09/my-blood-runs-that-go-deep-in-vampire.html

    1. #6 is one of my favourites, only outranked by warm blackberry pie and vanilla ice cream. 😋

  6. Good to see/read you!

    Happy Belated Birthday*

    Excellent listifying..

    damn! Grat 6! Who said the virtual world was abstract and slightly-unhuman! Haven’t had one of those in I don’t know how long.

    *the well-wish, not the birthday…lol

    …although, you got me thinking, what would a ‘belated birthday’ actually be? … would that be a youth enhancing experience (a delay on the benchmark infers a reprieve on the actual age… hmmm I think I should stop typing
