I love the use of a circus metaphor.and today I've been thinking about "a circus ain't a love story" and "I was tame, I was gentle, til the circus life made me mean" and how in getaway car she was able to escape the situation by leaving but in waolom the situation "lured her" and "caged her" and "trained" her

Busy day today. Had to go to a friend’s house and he is also my tax guy. He had two dogs and was dog sitting two others. The cute guy above is one of the two others. Those dogs just go crazy excited when I go over there.
After I got home there was more snow shoveling to do. Later I made a chicken and rice casserole so tomorrow’s dinner is done too.
We are at the start of the weekend now. I think I heard a YAY, and I agree. 😃

Today was different to what I had planned, I wanted to spend the day reading, but instead I did a lot of cleaning, gardening, and miscellaneous adulting. I even moved my bed and tidied up my room a little in hopes it’ll help with my sleep (don’t ask for the logic in that statement), anyway, curled up in bed now and hoping to do some of the reading that was planned for this day.

The Princess Royal and Sir Tim Laurence visit Sri Lanka.
Day 3: Colombo
This morning, The Princess Royal visited her first Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) Cemetery as their President.
During Remembrance Weekend in November 2023, Buckingham Palace announced that The Princess Royal would become President of the CWGC, taking over from His Royal Highness The Duke of Kent who had been President since 1970. His Majesty The King was also announced as the first Patron of the CWGC.
At the Commission’s Jaawatte Cemetery in Colombo, the largest CWGC site in Sri Lanka, Her Royal Highness was introduced to the Defence Advisor for Sri Lanka and the Maldives’ British High Commission, Colonel Darren Woods who lead a short Service of Remembrance which included an extract from the poem ‘For the Fallen’. A Bugler played the Last Post before a minute’s silence is held. After the Service, Her Royal Highness layed a wreath and viewed some graves, escorted by Colonel Woods.
Next, Her Royal Highness visted Vajira Pillayar Kovil, a Hindu Temple in Colombo. On arrival at the temple, Her Royal Highness and Sir Tim were presented with a garland of jasmine and rose flowers, a silk shawl receive a pottu in the middle of their forehead.
After watching a Hindu Dance Group perform at the entrance of the Temple, The Princess Royal met Chief Priest of Vajira Pillayar Kovil, Sachithanantha Kurukal who conducted a special pooja (blessing). Her Royal Highness also toured the main prayer hall and viewed the shrines.
After visiting the Temple, Her Royal Highness travelled to the British Council to hear about their work in building relationships and connections between UK and Sri Lanka through education, arts and cultural ties. HRH viewed The Arches of Awe exhibition which comprises photographs of the 21 arches that were erected across Colombo to welcome The late Queen Elizabeth II and The late Duke of Edinburgh during their visit to Sri Lanka in 1954. Dating back centuries, similar archways, also known as ‘thoranas’ were found across Asia and were often connected to traditional religious rituals.
The Princess then visited The Mission to Seafarers, an organisation which cares for the welfare of seafarers. The Princess Royal has been its President since 1984. During the visit, HRH toured the recently refurbished Mission to Seafarers centre and opened their new Family Room.
After this The Princess Royal went to Hatch Works’ co-working space to meet a selection of start-up companies, Her Royal Highness attended her final engagement in Sri Lanka, a I Reception, hosted by the British High Commissioner, to mark 75 years of diplomatic relations between the United Kingdom and Sri Lanka. Her Royal Highness ended the visit with a few spoken words about the relationship between the United Kingdom and Sri Lanka.
