So, my eye... ugh

This won't be a long post, as I'm trying to stay off screens for a bit. My poor right eye--well, I look possessed. Subconjunctival haemorrhage. 

I kind of look like a cross between the XMan who shoots lasers from his eyes and Darth Maul. Or maybe Sauron.

Rest assured, it will heal. It doesn't hurt, but looks really creepy. I have a dry eye issue anyhow (I don't blink enough when I'm on screens or reading), and it's really dry at work. So, blam.

Take good care,

C

Judy Collins in concert-- a real gift

Image
Hearing Judy Collins sing, tell jokes, and reminisce about the years she spent surrounded by other iconic folk singers was just wonderful. It felt like we were all in her living room, just listening, laughing, and sighing along-- the audience sang with her at times, talked with her at times, and in general, we felt held. Held by the music, by her kindness, by her humor-- very much needed in these turbulent times. It's easy to forget our common humanity in the face of so much ugliness, but Judy brought us back to our Selves, back to what makes us funny and fragile beings.  At 86 years of age, she is not really slowing down much, although it is clear that she knows her energy well.

And I, for one, am in awe of how she handled that Martin 12-string. Her piano playing was beautiful as well, an...

NEW FROM FINISHING LINE PRESS:  What to Keep   by Carlene M. Gadapee On SALE :     https://www.finishinglinepress.com/product/what-to-keep-by-carlene-m-gadapee/   What to Keep  is a collection of keen #observations: choices made, minor regrets, small successes, and questions asked. There aren’t always answers to the questions, but the #poems in this collection explore the particular things and #experiences that lead us to them. Readers are invited into the poet-speaker’s musings about #childhood, of #family, of #companionship, and of #loss. We follow the speaker as she walks through time: capturing minnows, high school crushes and college mistakes, #marriage, the deaths of parents, and finally, a note of hope for the future, whatever it may have in store. In the end, “what to keep” becomes what remains, what is precious, and what forms the foundation of a #life filled with joy, sorrow, and finally, of contentment.   A poet-teacher both by vocation...

Our new family member...

   Welcome to our family, Cece! Geoff went up to the rescue and picked her up, brought her home, and we are already in love. She is a sweet little cuddler, quick with kisses, and hardly any barks.  I know we'll have some readjusting to do (so much hair!!) but she is a lovely little pup. We need a new routine, and it'll take a few days. q Have a great day, all... C
