Despite my being an impecunious female Yankistani in the 20th/21st centuries I have acquired the perfect education for a wealthy English gent of the 1800s - languages, fencing, history, literature, poetry, politics, art, horsemanship. Sigh... I've been studying Ancient Egypt on my own since early childhood, and find most periods of Egyptian history fascinating. The foreign rulers' dynasties don't much interest me. I've been riding hunter-jumper off and on for more than 40 years, and also voraciously read about horse breeds, various riding styles, and equestrian history. I've never owned a horse, but had many years of lessons, and rode horses and ponies of many breeds and dispositions. School horses, trail horses, rescued Jamaican TB ex-racehorses, and even some exotic gaited critters have been my mounts.

This Phalaenopsis hybrid got sick with an unkown sickness last year. This pictures were taken on June 2024, before it inevitably lost the last leave.
But I didn't give up. I continued watering and soon it started to put out new leaves...

Something I need to be reminded of often. Yes, I'm very lazy and also have executive problems up the wazoo (the difference? laziness is fun), but the cultural expectation of being productive every waking moment isn't healthy either. And the business of feeding ourselves is especially fraught these days.
