Thank you, Dale 🙂 Yes, it’s definitely symbolic. I wasn’t going to let another Monday pass by without posting anything, and it just had to have blue sky in it somewhere.
Busy week for me, dear friend. Total hip replacement surgery coming up on Thursday. But I wanted to take a moment to say welcome back. You’ve been missed. I hope this finds you well and happy.
All the best for your hip replacement, dear Bill, and plenty of good wishes for a speedy recovery. Thank you for welcoming me back so warmly. I’m fairly well, although not quite as energetic as I was before all those vaccines, but still better than being dead! Happiness has been a bit intermittent for me over the last year, but still possible. And I have missed my lovely blogging friends.
Hugs to you, too, from the UK.
Happy New Year, Andrea. Yes, I know I’ve taken ages answering your comment. That ivy seems most intent upon entrapping me in its tangle, hence my long absence… yet again.
Oh, Lord. I’m going dotty, Andrea. I’ve wished you Happy New Year twice. This is proof my brains have flown out. Oh, well, double good wishes never hurt anyone!
Thank you, Sun. And a Happy New Year to you (rather a belated reply). I’ve been doing my best to stay in good tangle-wrangling shape but not always succeeding. Some mega-battles with anxiety are real stranglers. I have some good New Year resolutions though, re creativity. Won’t say anything too loudly, or that ‘ole devil might hear.

Dear Sarah,
How well I relate to tunnelling through the tangle. I agree with Dale, Quite symbolic of the times. Very well said.
Shalom,

Dear Rochelle,
Thank you. I thought you would empathise.
That tangle is so hard. Can you hear me sharpening my secateurs, if not my chainsaw from across the Pond? 😉
All best wishes,
Sarah
