This morning I enjoyed another positive chiropractic session with Eloise, and will be able to leave the next one for a week.
This afternoon, as storm Isha subsides somewhat in order to make way for the onset of Jocelyn tomorrow, I read the next two stories from my Gogol collection and published the post https://derrickjknight.com/2024/01/22/a-madmans-diary-the-nose/
Ellie is now able to ask for singing and dancing videos simply by singing the notes and swaying to the tunes she wants.
Here she perches on Becky for a session of some in cartoon versions.
This evening we all dined on second helpings of yesterday’s Chinese Takeaway with the addition of spring rolls and tempura and hot and spicy prawns with which Jackie drank Hoegaarden and I finished The Guv’nor
So cute when they can ask for things π
Thanks very much, Dale
Look at her expressions. Adorable.
Thank you so much, Rupali
She is getting so big and I am getting older watching her π
Thank you so much, Bridget. π She can get up the stairs quicker than we can
They are quick and wiggle away too fast.
We’d love some stormy and cold weather. However, 30 mins ago heavy downpour, made a slight difference but now hot again. Decided on a new tactic, tower fan on earlier, hope that makes a difference
Love the babies expression. Amazing she will grow up with such technology at her fingertips
It is rather amazing. Thanks very much Catherine
Glad your neck is doing better. Miss Ellie certainly conveys what she is feeling in a wide variety of expressions. Dinner sounds delicious.
Thank you very much, Pat
Ellie is adorable and growing so fast! god bless your beautiful family, Derrick! β€οΈ????????????
Thank you very much, John X
You guys are so welcome, Derrick. I very much enjoy following you and your wonderful family. βΊοΈβ€οΈ????????????????????β€οΈ

Ian had to return home
He did. And will be back. (As you know it is such a struggle to stay on line at the moment, so I intended to put that on today. You have saved me the effort)
I love Ellie’s expression in the last three photos!
Those are my favourites, too, Liz. Thank you very much
You’re welcome, Derrick.
A real bright little cutie then….xx
She is. Thanks very much, Joy
And the storms keep rolling in Derrick …
“Decades of Storms”
Β
Over the decades
Iβve lived through many storms
Yesterday
I read about an Atlantic Island storm
After midnight
I had a dream about my lifeβs storms
At dawn
I shall open my door to the storms
Β
I will then wait for my storms
To vacate the dark
And ask the morning sunlight
βAm I still the pilotβ
A fine metaphoric comment, Ivor. Thank you very much
Youβre welcome Derrick β¦ hopefully the storm/s will clear up soon
So sweet Derrick!
Thank you very much, Agnes
She looks so serious in those photos.
Thanks very much, Andy
You’re welcome.
I love those pictures of Ellie, her smile is delightful.
Thank you very much, Sue
I am pleased to hear that the chiropractising is paying off.
Thanks very much, Tootlepedal
You’ve got it all worked out Ellie !
Thanks very much, Sylvie
Eloise and Ellie sounds like a book title. Iβm glad the former is helping and how could you not delight in the latter. Cute!
Thank you so much, Alys π
Good to hear the need for treatment is decreasing. π
Thanks very much, Quercus
How adorable! Glad to hear the sessions are making a difference.
Thank you very much, Rosaliene
Ellie’s expressions are delightful! She’s developing her talent and having fun, too.
Thank you very much, JoAnna
Love her expressions! Hope the storm wasn’t too bad.
88 m.p.h. but birch still standing. Thanks very much, Laurie
Holy cats! Did you keep your power? That was some wind as we would say in Maine.
We did keep power, but I’m having real problems with WP
Darn!
She’s a happy little thing, isn’t she?
She is. Thanks very much, John
AW! Ellie is a delight! π I love how she is so focused…and then grins! π I think it’s so wonderful when little ones enjoy music and movement (dance, etc.)! π
Hope you are all safe! From what I’ve heard, Jocelyn is gonna’ make herself known. Ack!
(((HUGS))) β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ
Jocelyn will arrive later today. Thanks very much, Carolyn X
Great to hear that the chiropractor is working well for you. Iβve spent the last two months visiting my osteopath, and he has got me walking properly again – painfree. Itβs like having a whole new back and hips.

I think you may have a budding musician or dancer there, Derrick. Those are wonderful photos of Ellie. Such an expressive child!
She spends a lot of time singing all the right notes, although she doesn’t have all the words
Thanks very much, Lavinia
I’m so happy for you that the chiropractic sessions are having a positive effect.
Such wonderful photos of Ellie.
I hope the next storm is not too bad.
Thanks very much, Merril
Ellie looks totally engrossed in
Thanks very much, Sheree
It is so fun when they start to tell you what they want. What a doll Derrick!
Thank you so much, Diane
How wonderful, and different, it must be for her growing up in a world that has never been without computers, of all shapes and sizes. π
Quite so, Wilders. Thank you very much
A lovely way to spend rainy days π
Thank you very much, Riba
