We visited my husband, Harvey, in the nursing home this morning. It was Khun Yuwaret’s (Harvey’s nurse’s) last day, as she is going home to be with her family. We are really going to miss her. She has treated Harvey like he was her dad, and you can’t get better care than that. I got some pics, and the visit was a good one. When I told him I loved him, he said, “I reciprocate.” 🤣
We live on a busy street in Chiang Mai, and the celebrating may be loud and boisterous tonight. Harvey asked if there would be fireworks. I hadn’t thought of that, so I thanked him for giving me something to look forward to. Brian and I have no interest in getting out in the midst of young, drinking revelers, but I love fireworks. We will get up early tomorrow, as we do every morning, to do our walking, celebrating the beginning of a brand, spanking new year, full of possibilities.
Chiang Mai fireworks will probably originate from the river that runs through the old, original center of the city. That will make them much safer. I hope they will start as soon as it gets dark!

This was sent to me by my good friend, Nora. I think it’s beautiful.
Happy New Year, whether you’re celebrating tonight or tomorrow. Wishing you a joyous year full of love and gratitude.
