    Today is my 49th wedding anniversary. I got a good one! Every single day I wake up grateful that I married such a kind, caring, sensible, joyful man who makes me laugh! We're very lucky to have such a great marriage and life. We enjoy each other's company and balance out each other. He keeps me on an even keel. He loves me always! I wish every person could have such love.

    Shoot. Don't know why it is upside down.
    This was the plant I brought to my parents a year ago January 6, and when I picked it up in March from their room, it was five yellow sticks, no leaves. Same plant that was out in the garden last summer.

    I think my dad sits in that room and reads at night. He always liked poinsettias and once, when down in the Keys, took a boat out to see the house of the guy who was a big deal in bringing them to the US.
    That doesn’t even look real!

    I know, that's why I think there is a supernatural element involved.

    What a lovely tribute to your husband. That is what true love seeks to be! Congratulations.
