:Hello Char.
Good , you are reconnected
It was my favorite author E.Forster who said "Only connect" I just reread Room with a View" and then borrowed the dvd from the library. When the weather is bad, as yours has been in AZ, what do you do for serenity?
I also roasted vegetables and the heat from the oven was received favorably by my orchids on the kitchen window ledge. I enjoyed blooms.The philodendron went wild and entwined itself around the cord from the window shade. So books, music, films and flowers - and roasted zucchini helped me through our storms.
