Dear HoneyBlossom:

I hope that you are asleep right now, it being 2:27 am your time, having a restful sleep, and that your dog is asleep too and will continue to improve. You have a busy week ahead of you, vet appt, work, appt with the surgeon.

I like Aretha Franklin’s I Say a Little Prayer for You: The moment I wake up, Before I put on my makeup, I say a little prayer for you… Forever and ever, you’ll stay in my heart, And I will love you, Forever and ever, we never will part… Together, forever, that’s how it must be, To live without you, Would only mean heartbreak for me”. I can almost hear it coming from your player piano.

The lyrics, that’s how a young child feels about his/ her primary caretaker, usually the mother, then fast forward, these same feelings are projected to a romantic interest, with the addition of the sexual factor.

In my news feed 50 minutes ago: “There is growing evidence that Ukraine is managing to inflict significant casualties on Russian forces as they try to advance deeper into the country — and that the swift strike Russia hoped to carry out on the capital, Kyiv, has been slowed by intense and popular resistance”- courage and resistance in the face of autocratic aggression!
