Very glad of your timing! Your photo is gorgeous; I love that rich deep red.
And "Reddy", ha ha, love it! Though I did expect to see a rose perhaps, whose petals somehow showed a portrait of Helen Reddy in the way Jesus appears on tortillas...
Lately I know my commrnts seem crazy. My blortting out my wars of my being is not interesting but sometimes the negatives of life overwealm me. Your bkog is one of those which swing me back to normality
Great pun, and lovely flower - you always have wonderufl words and images! (And thanks for mentioning that Online Etymology site in your comment, it became part of my post today!)
