Round up of 2023

 

As the purpose of this blog was to be a journal of events in my life since retirement, without repetition of posts, here are a few noteworthy events in 2023.

The Ups

Celebrations: Big family gatherings for Nephew’s wedding, Granddaughter’s 16^th, Grandson’s 18^th, Brother’s 80^th and Sister’s 70^th

I’d be glad to hear your ups and downs in 2023.

Warm wishes for a happy, healthy and peaceful year
