It always fascinates me how water droplets cling to petals/leaves this way. You would expect them to trickle or slide downwards. This flower was one of the small, fringed Chrysanthemums. Rather a messy photo, but I guess I need to find somewhere to go to get some new photos! Just spent most of the afternoon waiting at the Health Centre to get routine bloodwork, EKG, etc. done. The place was packed! I tend to put off any kind of tests for years and years. However, I know that when I next need a prescription refill, I will need to have got these tests done, so it pushed me into finally doing it - which is good, especially as I haven't felt too well the past three months : ) Tomorrrow - the dentist : ) One of the gifts my youngest daughter gave me at Christmas was an M&M (food) gift card. So, right now, there is a pot roast heating up in my oven, as well as a dish of Scalloped Potatoes. Thought I'd celebrate finally getting my tests done, LOL. Thanks so much, Rachel!! I should add here that, much as I dislike any medical/dental appointments, I feel tremendously grateful that such care is available here. I can say exacly the same as far as food goes. The unfortunate people of Haiti would trade places with me in a heartbeat!!!! Such an overwhelmingly sad, sad time for them.
