Although we all know that life has its ups and downs, this past week has been one of such happy news that I thought I would write on that topic. The exciting news of the safe arrival on the west coast of a first grandchild for one of our TPW members warmed all our hearts, and a gorgeous photo was loved by all the would-be grandmothers amongst us. Then came the wonderful news of a very happy outcome of a medical procedure for one member of our community, which also warmed all our hearts and filled us with gratitude. Thirdly, Sunday's Sporting Life 10K race saw 10 of our group happily blitz through the course, making it look easy to those of us cheering on the sidelines! A superb first race for one of our walkers was also a highlight - huge congrats to CM! The perfect weather certainly helped this year, as did the outstanding breakfast provided so generously at the end of the race by our very own resident caterer, LR. Hopefully these happy memories will help sustain us all when life occasionally delivers us some lemons.
