Post 63 : Hope

I missed all but a hint of one end of this rainbow, which was captured by my daughter from her 18th floor office in the Adelaide CBD around 2.30 this afternoon.






It rained on and off all day, increasing in the afternoon. My closing the Vergola roof didn't deter the dove but she did pick a time when it wasn't raining to collect her daily offering of seed and water.





I also had a surprise visit from a Noisy Miner (that's really its name). I haven't noticed one of these before, certainly not on the balcony rail. The sound came first. For those who are interested and don't know the bird, or why it has it's name, you can hear it at  https://youtu.be/dphBB5xMvOw.

The news from Perth came early this afternoon. Jennifer is booked to have a tracheotomy on Friday. The hospital is apparently waiting on negative pressure suits for the ENT specialists who will operate. Her oxygen support is down to 20%, and she is stable. The procedure is expected to make her more comfortable and she will be brought out of sedation afterwards. A bit more waiting - but very promising.




Late in the afternoon my Coles delivery came. I am so grateful for this service. You might notice the toilet paper - ordered for a friend who is having difficulty finding a supply. It's the first time I've bought it. I have enough for about 10 weeks so this is for my friend.






















I concentrated on the stag today. Again, it was relaxing and enjoyable to stitch.  I then filled in the hillocks beneath the stag.











So now it's hillocks all the way.

That's manageable.
