Are you really? You've said before that you're never OK...maybe you just don't want us to worry.
@Lee71 @NatureLover
Maybe you're right

That's pretty...what's meant to change colour, the flower or the leaves?
I'm exhausted...am going to lie down for an hour or two. See you after that?

Yes, I thought it might be the case 😞
Am I allowed to worry just a little bit? Not a lot, just a very little?

Hi, Lee...

Yes, that's probably why I woke up with it in my head 🙂
Do you know what colour your pink flower is meant to change into?

Hi, Lee...it's unusual for you to be away for 5 hours...I guess I'm a bit worried something bad may have happened...like maybe you had to call an ambulance for your heart rate staying too high...or...or...something worse?
I've missed chatting to you...I care about you a lot.
I really hope that things are manageable there...that maybe you've even caught up on some sleep...or can do that a bit tonight...I am really hoping to see you tomorrow.
Sending you many very gentle hugs, my dear friend...
