I examined my own heart. And there you were. Never, I fear, to be removed.

Still have many traveling projects in mind this year. But still has legal issues to deal with too. It has got a notch more complicated recently as my maneuverability has got a bit narrower, not dramatic though. My lawyer has told me once that winning my case doesn’t mean there won’t be any damage. Trying to stay serene through all this. I was told that maybe the timing for traveling wasn’t ideal under the circumstances. I replied that I shouldn’t stop living for this reason even more as the outcome may not be known for many more years. One thing is for sure, life won’t give me back the years.

Will have our new pool equipment installed tomorrow. Finding a supplier has actually proved to be more challenging than expected as even the original supplier didn’t care to bid. In any case, I feel like I have ended up turning a bad luck into an opportunity. I expect the new equipment and the new supplier will make pool maintenance so much more easier!

And finalized today planting the riverside flower bed. Since we lost most of our rose bushes last year, I had to replace them and finally picked short hydrangeas for their resilience and white peonies for their fragrance. They should look better in a year from now as they now need to mature.

She had this way of magnifying one’s simple words and experiences. One would hand her a bit of information as dull as a lump of lead. She would hand it back glittering like diamonds. I always felt on leaving her that I had drunk two glasses of an excellent champagne. She was a life-enhancer. That was one of her own favorite phrases.

Been binge-watching that tvshow about people moving to Paris, London and Amsterdam. Things may actually be lining up for something interesting starting next month. But have yet to settle a few things first.

On left, a recent picture from the local news. Our pool house luckily didn’t totally burn down. The neighbors called the firefighters early enough. But we lost all the pool equipment. On right, what it looks inside after going through a high pressure wash (it was completly carbonized) and some wall rebuilding. Not exactly what I was expecting doing these days but hey! The source of the fire was apparently an electrical failure from an outdoor wire. I remember weather conditions to be especially dry that day.
