Remembering dad on his 85th birthday
Dear Dad,
I’m sending birthday wishes to you today
all the way up to the sky.
And reminiscing the simple things
you enjoyed or made you glad like
… a cup of tea in the afternoon
… reading
(You loved to read both English and Chinese books. And I remember returning some books to the rental shop after your passing)
.
.. singing church hymns
(You were still singing to the gospel songs in the car even at the final stage of cancer)
… making chapati
(Indian flat bread)
.
.. bringing home a new puppy.
… lending a helping hand to friend or stranger
Happy 85th Birthday, Dad!
Much love …
Joke of the day – Amaizing Grace
β«Amaizing Grace!
How sweet the corn;
That saved a rodent like me!β«
Dare to fly fast and free just like the dragonfly…
and may you find joy and new light.
No more …
monkeying around!
There’s still a lot of work to be done in my little hut…
like exercising my paws and claws…
CATching up with my friend, Miss Fur-rocious…
meowing my heart out to suppliCATe for some leftovers…
But, I gotta be careful of this guy though…
He might just blow off our beautiful hut!
Time to unplug
It’s time to unplug &
reconnect with beautiful nature.
I will be back soon.
Keep smiling &
keep shining, my friends!

Joke of the day – Short sermon
A minister preached a very short sermon. Β He explained, “My dog got into my office and chewed up some of my notes.”
At the end of the service, a visitor asked, “If your dog ever has pups, please let my pastor have one of them.”
“Next time you get yelled at for no reason, let it go. Β
People have bad days too.
It’s not as easy as it looks to walk upright
and act like you’re in charge of the planet,”

Dragon fruit aka pitaya
Slice it into half, You’ll find red flesh with black seeds inside. (Some dragon fruit comes in white flesh)
Peel off the skin.
