Updated Lady Head Vase Pictures!


















Good Evening, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

It has been a great tidbitz day! Started with us going early morning, to see the doctor for Alan's knee re: an upcoming long overdue surgery. It looks as if a) the surgery won't take place til after the summer and b) the surgeon feels there is not much he can do; save that Alan's knee won't be worse off. Apparently the skin infection did not help his injury 21 months ago; and the muscles are damaged permanently. He has been given a prescription for the pain; however, the pills are extremely expensive! After the doctor's appointment, we went to the hospital for further X rays; so if nothing else, there is some bittiz progress being made.

Also amazing all the people one meets in the hospital 'waiting room'; everyone was sharing about their injuries. The chap beside me, had his index finger 'flattened' or 'smushed' flat (he showed me); was on a painkiller injection; and some one else, was in extreme pain with an ongoing knee problem; and he could hardly limp. He shared that he moved out 'West'; and eventhough there are not many people here with Alan's last name, there were many with the same name, where he came from. Small world! Alan immigrated to Canada from Scotland as a wee lad; and his family made their way via train to the 'West'. Most likely the ones in the 'East' are relatives!LOL!

Might add too, that at the doctor's (prior to going to the hospital), I wrote out a tidbit recipe (easy to make, methinks!) from a magazine for 'Greek Lamb Kebabs'. Sounds delicious; particularly served with a Tzatziki dip. Will give the Lamb Kebab recipe to you tomorrow; no recipe though for the Tzatziki.

A friend of mine rightly suggested an update of our Lady Head Vase Collection; so here are several photos; and if there are any questions, please ask. I am 'learning the ropes' on how to use our digital camera; as you most likely can see. Please bare with me; as we also have a large skylight, as well as window blinds; and even when the blinds are shut, there is reflection.

There are NO coindences. Apart from the unique people we enjoyed meeting today, also ran into an old classmate, (a dear friend of mine) at the bank. She turned a 'certain age' today; and Alan and I sent her a card, with a 'spiritual message'; and we signed it with 'LOVE AND GOD BLESS'. Going back a couple of years ago, she was 'unkind' and I called her 'on it'; and she did not like that; because she knew her 'words, actions and deeds' were FALSE. So, 2 years have passed; and I 'remembered' (Guided by Him!) this morning, it was her birthday. It was a bittid matter of forgiveness on my / our part. When I saw her at the bank (after the medical appointments), I gave her a big hug and she was grateful! She was appreciative for the card re: 'Blessings and Joys' on her day; and she knew that she had been forgiven by us for her 'untruths'. At the time when she had been 'mean spirited', she could provide me with no bit explanation; save that the information had been 'fabricated' by her. Have had tid nothing to do with her since; until today. Must make mention too, that we have recently 'run into her' a few times (at the bank) and Alan and I have said 'hello'. The last time, she ran into Alan, she wanted to make sure that he said 'Hi' to me (he passed on her greeting).

Also, another chap was in our thoughts today; and we literally ran into each other in passing. NO COINCIDENCES! I felt empowered to uplift all those I saw today (actually make that a plan for everyday!); and methinks, there were genuine 'smiles' everywhere! So, that is why I say it was a good day!

We also enjoyed frozen prawns (from Costco) wonderfully cooked up by Alan; and my 'creative' healthy Caesar Salad for our dinner, along with a glass of South African red wine! We are glad for the evening, when all can rest!

Peace, Good Night, and God Bless.
