How can we find a path forward
With the world in such disarray?
Perhaps starting at the local level and
Being active will lead the way.
A sad good-bye began our year
With Kashi’s unexpected passing
Although we miss her sweet face
Our memories will be everlasting.
Robert underwent a second hip surgery
As the pain became chronic
Back on his feet and doing well now
He can truly be called bionic!
Traveling north and south by car
And flying back east this past spring
We reunited with family and friends
The most important thing.
We each had milestone birthdays
Celebrations with happy tears
Though Robert earned his Medicare status
I have to wait five years!
I’ve surpassed my 100th blog post – yay!
Writing and mentoring keep me on my toes
While Robert is busy consulting and
Building a new business with all he knows.
Being kind and respectful with others
As we openly listen and discuss
May help bring us closer together for
The next generation is looking to us.

Wishing you and your loved ones all the best!
I am sorry to hear about Kashi passing. Great news about bionic Robert though!
I always enjoy your Yultetide poem and this year is no exception! Thank you. Ironically, your card arrived today – yay!
Wishing you a wonderful Holiday season and best wishes for 2023!

Thank you Rachel. We miss both Kashi and Capers. We may add a new beagle to our household in 2023. We’ll see how things go. So glad you got our card and we got yours, too! Best wishes for a happy and healthy holiday season!
