The French music radio is playing classical, chorus, and musical comedy music. ~It is exactly what the heart ordered this morning. Hubby went to walk the dogs, buy pot and do groceries. It is Maria song from west side story right now. The mood is up and the mental state is relaxed and happy.  Tainted with a tinge of sadness I have been feeling this year, despite the happy skies , the peaceful skies I adore so much in Canada. 

I spoke to my mother on the phone this morning around 11am their time. They left their yellow bird (canary) home alone for four days. He has been depressed since they left him for over three weeks at the care in a pet shop. His name is Lewis. He is about 2-3 years old.
