It is sad that your mother has to give up one of her favorite creative hobbies. I love your description of her beautifully detailed hydrangea flowers.
That quote resonates somewhat with me too, though I also think in some ways that the mainstream has moved so far right since the 1960s and 70s, particularly with jobs--the minimum wage not being raised, less of a responsibility felt to train and keep employees, workloads increasing on the lower and middle and in some cases upper level workers without a wage increase or much of one.
And yes, joys. So glad you have Luigi. Lord Ivan is sitting near me on our new storage ottoman.
