Seeing this painting from years ago made me happy. It's been a rough day--
still feeling under the weather. So last year's post seems perfect. I thought
we've got to get some flowers in here because they are always an immediate
source of joy for me. We'll soon have Amaryllis plants in bloom, and that
will be awesome. And this is one of my favourite tulip paintings.

For the past couple of years on this day I talked about how Louise Hay
once asked what word you would use to define the year. In 2017 I said
"joy", in 2023 "resilience", in 2024 I would use both "magnificent",
because so many parts of my life have been magnificent, and "surprise"
because it seems the surprises (mostly good, but some terrifying) have been endless.

For 2025 the word wonderful seems appropriate. And that with the
world falling all around us. I have had a wonderful year -- special,
world falling all around us. I have had a wonderful year -- special,
fabulous -- a very good year. I do miss Paris -- so next year.
And yes a great many people, events, beautiful views, flowers, music,
have given me joy. So I am very grateful.
