Seconds Count
Day after tomorrow, for one second it will be 9/19/19 at 9:19:19. It seems that every day something occurs that will never happen again, and most of those things we probably missed, are missing, will miss. What could one do for that one second that would make a difference in someone's life? Probably...

How Can I Describe Today?
And.... How can I look forward to tomorrow? Big V has been writing about grief for a long time and today it (grief) became personal....again....with an unexpected fierceness that has our whole family rocking. How can it be that a beloved person can be healthy, and happy, and special to so many...

When I Quote Keats
"When I have fears that I may cease to be Before my pen has glean'd my teeming brain, Before high-piled books, in charactery, Hold like rich garners the full ripen'd grain; When I behold, upon the night's starr'd face, Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance, And think that I may never live to trace...

Long ago and far away was so much better than it is today.... at least it surely does seem to be so on looking back. Ribcage and I talk often of the good things of our yesterdays but last evening, I reminded him of how it kind of depends on how far back one wants to go. His "good old days" were...

Brrr-rr
The "-ber months" are here and I just love it--I love each, and all of them. Each is special in its own way and filled with excitement, happiness, fun, joy.

Obsession
It's difficult to keep one's mind off of Dorian when you have loved ones in Deltona. I keep looking at the map with the cone even though nothing seems to change because Dorian is moving along the coast at one mile per hour. An hour from now the map with the cone will look the same even though it...

One Itching Finger
It rained last night. Hard! And the night before, and if I remember right, the one before that. Mud puddles are forming where there used to be grass. Behind our building is a little duck pond to beautify the grounds. A channel runs through it. Normally it is light and no one pays much attention to...
