Intact

This rose dropped off the bush (probably during heavy shower) and landed without shedding a petal, I picked it up whole. and it is still perfectly formed.
Rang a friend today and was surprised that she and husband have not moved from the house since March. She is a little younger than me and neither have health issues. Their two sons told them they had to stay put, and organised shopping with grand-daughter. They call every evening after work and chat on doorstep, and the time is not yet right. I told her she is in for a surprise when eventually “released”, she agreed although has seen pictures on t/v.
