Blossoming Bells

It's been a gloomy day weatherwise, and thinking lots about the deaths yesterday, especially little Eleanor. Life is very precious and so fragile.

But beauty carries on - walked out in the damp and saw both the loquats and these medronhos (arbutos unedo) blooming.

Gratefuls:
- getting a good review of my years doing Member Care, quite encouraging
- Mike and I deciding to write some Christmas cards after all
- the electricity holding out so far (had no sun today)
