What's your excuse? Mine is a huge plant sale so I'm digging holes and watering the grass seed. Also enjoying the music outside and hey hey hey....the neighbor and I had a very pleasant conversation.
The weather is beautiful here but oh boy...we need rain. BJ I so hope you are feeling a little better. And Wren, are you seeing any improvement? Curious, dear heart....can you feel the love? Ok...back to the yard. Hugs for the room

Things are screaming in my head right now... please forgive me if I am quiet again for a while... It seems that I just get to dealing with one thing and life BEATS me in the back of the head again.

I've been a little self-absorbed lately, and I despise what I see. I suspect my husband feels the same way about me. His patience has grown thin, and I can't really blame him.
We went to the Blues Fest on Friday night. He walked faster than usual, and I couldn't keep up. I lost sight of him. I could only see the faces closest to me, and a feeling of dread came over me. If I stopped walking, I'd probably faint, but I didn't know which way to walk! I figured it was best to stay put and walk in circles until he found me, but then I started to wonder if he'd even bother to come look for me! By the time he found me, I was terrified and he was furious It was the ONLY time I've ever attended the Chicago Blues Fest while truly suffering from the blues. |

Owwwwwwwww....not what I was hoping to hear from this "family" of mine.
I'm sorry abbie..life just has a way of coming in three's some times...or is it four and fives? Screaming in head is very uncomfortable...can you hummm it away..drowned it out with singing?? And KathyM I'm sorry to learn that your man is only human...I had a picture of him in my mind of being a super hero, and kicking wren's guy to the curb... Well, we can't live with them sometimes or without them. We went to a piece of the Blues fest in Chicago one year...the daytime stuff. I'm a little intimidated by those large crowds at night. Can only imagin your fear at being left behind. Shame on him.

(((Abbie))) So sorry to hear you're not doing well. Take good care of yourself and do things you enjoy.
(((Kathy))) That is really scary! Like Alffe said, I always thought of him as Mr. Superhusband as well. I'm so sorry you got so scared, My dad has really bad eyesight, obviously for very different reasons, and I know how much it bothers him. His eye doctor from years ago didn't catch his glaucoma and when a new doctor came in, he was shocked at how advanced it was. He has a couple other things wrong as well and in fact has a 3 hour checkup of some sort tomorrow morning because his eyesight is deteriorating so rapidly now. I'm sure looking forward to getting a chance to see you in September!

And the weather here is uncomfortable with mucho humidity. Oh, and found out today I have to have about $383 of work done on my car. Something about the boots on the universal joint, and axle, and oh I don't know. When I turn to the right or left the car goes clunk clunk clunk near the left wheel well. Guess I gotta get THAT fixed before I go driving off to the Chicago area! He said when those boots go the car doesn't! Like...I can afford this.

LOL Alffe
Yep, he's human - and I'm a bi*ch sometimes too. Our fights tend to be a little more vicious lately, but maybe it's me. I think we've turned into the "Slowsky's" (TV commercial) - but we're the hard core, Southside Chicago version. Wait a minute - he's from Arizona. It MUST be me! Poor guy. |

Sorry to hear about your dad. My vision can be quite entertaining when I'm home alone with nothing to do. I still have my acuity, but my corneas are eroded and filled with amyloid fibrils. It makes everything look Picasso-like, but alive. When my eyes are tired, I get ocular migraines - all I can see are neon flashing lights in front of me. When I'm up for extended hours in pain, I tend to get strange after-images when I close my eyes. All I can do is sit back and try to enjoy the show. I'm really looking forward to meeting you too. We've known each other for so long. Alffe, I'd really like to meet you in person too. I wouldn't blame you for not wanting to take a trip into the city. But if you do, maybe we can meet somewhere. If Superman is off work, he'd be more than happy to dump me off on you for a little while. |

Chicago? A trip to Chicago? Oh, how I dream of another trip to Chicago .... well, Evanston.
For 14 years I made it to Evanston for the winter season opening of a gallery every year IF a nice friend was going too and he always was. He would drive me there, make certain I was OK and drive me home. Gee, we always had a ball. Naturally, last year I couldn't make it because of my defective head and I have no idea what will happen this fall |
