Kind readers ♥ – thank you for visiting Life and Random Thinking today. Before I get consumed by the black hole I call my gmail inbox – I wanted to check in with you and give you a hug.
Did you feel it?
I can’t tell what it feels like, there are no words, to express how I felt reading all the kind messages to Bob.
I think you threw a blanket of love over his room, and it was a homemade quilt. The squares were the messages from far and wide and as he read each one it touched him.
It was probably the first time his smart phone warmed him up like a mug of hot cocoa between his fingers.
It worked too! Within a few days, and much earlier than expected they let Bob go home. (play the trumpet ) Home to his pillow, his kitchen, his own bathroom – home to use his own shower and what a wonderful feeling it was to him to arrive there. ♥♥♥ He sounds so much better on the phone also!
Warm messages still arriving to that post and dozens and dozens all together. What a wonderful example to what I keep telling people about why I continue to blog. I am privileged to meet and know you through this experiment of mine.
Blessings and hugs to each of you – thank you for your gifts of wellness. – sincerely David
Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
Since we’ve no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snowIt doesn’t show signs of stoppin’
Frank Sinatra
And I’ve brought some corn for poppin’
The lights are turned down low
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

What a WONDERFUL post! Not only did it make me feel really good about sending a heartfelt message to Bob, it made me feel even better knowing so many of us did. It restored my faith in humanity, which has been in question lately as events all over the world have seemed so harsh & horrific. In the end … & in the response to your blog about Bob, it is obvious that the good STILL outweighs the bed … good people continue to make small miracles happen when & where they count. I suddenly feel the urge to put up the Christmas tree & wrap stuff. May Bob continue on his path to full recovery. He is an inspiration to us all.
So pleased to have recently met you & follow your posts.

So true Wayne. After weeks a person gets really worn down in a room, no fresh air and mentally burnt out. – David

What wonderful news! I’m so happy Bob got to go home earlier than expected; it has certainly been a long recovery for him. Your post was a virtual hug for me today. I enjoyed the incomparable Frank Sinatra with a cup of hot tea after seeing your fun Christmas decorations. It is never too early to say it: Merry Christmas, David!🎄❄️☃️
