It's amazing how wonderful or awful it can become when something changes in one's mind.

Sending good thoughts for fast healing following your dental procedure.

Your quotes struck me strongly today, especially the last one. Seems as though I become melancholy more easily over the past (generational changes and youth) than I previously did. I'm sure that trying to push myself to take pictures of and then get rid of the few things that I still have from my childhood that my parents gave me is having an strong effect on me.

If somebody could solve that riddle! I've switched to put my socks in netbags and still managed to loose one sock of my best pair. When i got my new washer and drier I checked underneath and inside of the old ones, nothing,. The dustbunnies I blame on my cat, she brings them in as other cats bring mice, etc. offerings. Yep. no doubt about it.

Anneliese - it's in my memory also. My sister Carola was horrified, she knew we were all going to jail for doing that, wanted nothing to do with it. She was twelve years old and always a frightened child.- I had to take time to comment on this, have been absent, reading but not taking time to comment. House-guest coming Monday - between home and garden have been a bit busy - I am not 80 any more (smiling)

Change, as necessary it is most times, at other times could stay away, like your change tomorrow. Wishing you a fast recovery, no pain and a big bunch of sunflowers.

Lilo, I am sending good vibes and cyber hugs in your direction and hope all goes well with your dental work. If you can avoid it, don't let the dentist give you anything for pain that has hydrocodone (sp.?) in it. My DH had some dental work done, yesterday, was give an Rx with that being the main ingredient, and the last 24 hours have been pure h-e-doubletooth picks!!!

((((((Lilo))))))
