A New Day

Living out of a Windstar van, commuting between my home and my workplace. I have at last come to rest for a while in Colorado.  It is time to clear up some confusion.

1. ABOUT MY NAME.
2. ABOUT WHERE AND HOW I LIVE.

The PM Watch

I continue to use the metaphor of a ship at sea and take as my time for rest the afternoon, or PM watch.  This afternoon I watch politically active youth provide testimony to Congress concerning EPA.

The Final Battle

GranCCY here: On the day that I posted "Mixed Blessings" in our New World Blog, one of my doctors said to me, "Too bad you're not a horse!" I had confessed only to him how much pain I was in. His comment made me laugh, and I said, "Right! Then they could just take me out and shoot me." The next day, Elsa called. She was in tears. She too has rheumatoid arthritis and has recently submitted a foot to surgery.

She was "tired," and her pain was so bad that she couldn't walk. She had already called her clinician. While she waited for a return call, she needed to talk. I was able to listen without repeating my doctor's comment. I've been thinking about our final battle in the war with fear, pain and death. Occasionally, I wish I were a horse.

The Party Is Over!

Whew!

Like everyone else using IT, we have been flooded with email and advertising.

in retrospect

I see my life now as it has really been, like a piece of flotsam caught up in the ebb and flow of LIFE.

In-Laws & Outlaws

I lied to Dex's sister.  Our relationship, his and mine, is too complicated for me to explain or anticipate what we might do in private or in the future.  All I can say is that we have taken no vows and do not intend to.  What this means for the future of our enterprise I cannot say.
