Pink Saturday...

And this is a memento of the night that we saw "Rigoletto," an Italian opera, with Croatian subtitles! That was mind-boggling! To explain a little, we were in Croatia visiting our exchange student son, and were treated to the opera. It was actually a wonderful experience. We also learned how to say "bat" in Croatian, making us bilingual in the world of bat-speak In case you wish to know, in Croatia, a bat is a sheeshmeesh. We now can speak "bat" in three language. Mercielago is bat-speak in Spanish. We cannot spell it in any of the three, except English. You are welcome to help us. 

P.S. It was an outdoor performance. We saw several sheeshmeesh swooping over the stage.

I am sharing my blessings for Pink Saturday. My biggest blessing is another day with my beloved Jud, who has pancreatic cancer. I could name so many blessings that have gone with this journey, most of them involving the incredible love and care of friends and the faith to continue though another day. Our daughter has been a huge blessing, with her very loving nature. This week Jud and I are going to Canada to celebrate our thirty-eighth anniversary. I thank God for the extra time to enjoy our love.
