Hello dear friends and fellow bloggers! A very warm welcome to you all! Happy New Year! Welcome to the year 2026!
I would like to thank you all so much for your kind responses, concerns, prayers and thoughts on my previous post "Health Issues" Your outpouring of love and support means so much to me! I will update after I am able to see a doctor and perhaps specialists as well as to what the results of these appointments reveal. This may take a month or more, (particularly if I am referred to specialists) because you all know how the medical system is right now. I will let you know when I find out.
Back to my regular posts! :)
Here are today's picks, which I hope will brighten your day in some way.
