 Kaylia is counting the days till her birthday on the coming Friday!  As I write Kaylia is in the middle of her weekly speech therapy session,  Her verbal comprehension is fairly good.  She has to concentrate to speak with clear sounds.  The session always includes games .... she likes these!

Yesterday we had our usual long drive for Invasion Day.  The drive to Bindoon is very pleasant and it usually has the reward of an op shop visit.  The op shop there is one of the few that is open on public holidays.

Kaylia at this moment is playing a track from Tina Arena where the song climaxes on a long note.  I like Tina..... but Kaylia is repeating this one bar of the song over and over......

Momentous events on the world stage!   ..... a 48 hour deadline to Putin.... Trump losing his precious Mar a Lago .....  a new financial world system......  a back down over Greenland....  this list goes on today!

 Well !!! The invasion of Venezuela was certainly a change that was NOT for the better.  The current version of "Pax Americana" is anything but!  Fortunately such events don't touch Kaylia's world.

 Best wishes for the new year.  The year promises significant changes in the world.  Let's hope that the  changes are for the better!

The Christmas/New Year break is hard for Kaylia.... with most services closing, her routine is thoroughly disrupted. This then flows on to me as we have to manage the disruption.  Long car drives are always welcome .... we had a drive to Bindoon yesterday and a drive to Fremantle today.

(Nothing special.... I just like this)
