2. a good book to re-read again.
3 a soft be with plenty of warm covers
4 a wood fire to take off the chill on spring mornings
5 a conductor that recognizes it takes a while to get back into an instrument after 18 years…
6 rice for dinner
7. a small piece of dark chocolate every day
8. knowing that you new grandchild will soon be here and has plenty of cute clothes
9. your cat that sits on your shoulder while you type with no claws clutching
10 said cat, see above, jumping off your shoulder, again, no claws

Flowers….such a simple pleasure….very thoughtful of your d-i-l. The colors would go well in my living room, where the only flower is an Easter Lily at the moment.
Love the post and love your new picture. I can see your WW progress!
Blessings,
Sandy
Thanks, all of you. I loved your list Tanabu (what?? does that mean? – did you tell me already?). The roses are wide open (it’s Thursday) and still delight me. Sandy, my wonderful DIL gave me a gift certificate for a hair cut at the most exclusive salon in town. I was delighted that the award-winning stylist could take my wavy hair and make it straight. I had my son take a picture to capture the moment. WW is going slowly but steadily. Thanks, a thousand times, for the encouragement.
Tanabu was the highshcool I attended in Japan the year I did an exchange program…
Brenda…glad your flowers are still doing well!
