And so it goes, mentally

Plan on unexpected tests surprising and challenging you until you die. Plan on the same with blessings.

The gas bubble in my eyeball is half or just a little bit below half from the top. This is exactly what is supposed to happen.

However, the top half of my vision should be normal.

It is not.

It is blurry.

Cannot recognize my hand in front of me.

Why is this so?

Because there is blood in the eyeball.

There should not be but there is.

Now, we must wait for the body’s miraculous ability to remove the blood.

The best i can picture is a flesh wound that needs time to clear a scab.

Blog anniversary (NOT) in GNP, mind

i write five daily, differently-themed blog posts on five different sites.

dad

Today begins year 16.

Never missing a day.

Since April Fools Day, 2009.

Five daily, differently-themed blog posts.

Mind, body, spirit, work, home.

Just wanted to get writing practice to build my confidence so i could write, and publish, my first book, Mid Life Celebration: rethink • reprioritize •recommit

Note: Technically, i should be back in Glacier, however, still in Orlando recovering from emergency eye surgery.

NOT Back to Glacier, mind

Today would have been wheels up at 8:12 AM, heading back to Glacier after one week at home. Photo: 07/15/23…On July 16 hiked to Sperry Chalet for a three night stay. Then the next day, July 17…

Surrender is a super-power.

Am i disappointed that i’m not on a jet racing to Glacier National Park right now?

No.

Why?

Because i’ve already spent a month hiking in Glacier this Summer.

Plus, this is the 11th consecutive Summer visiting.

No regret nor remorse from this Summer’s second visit being cancelled.

Drive to Airport, fly home, mind

Mini van packed with luggage
Cheryl’s organizing yesterday allows me to return to this in a week. Gone are the three large cardboard boxes.

Not a fan of National Park Lodge room water for drinking. Hence multiple water jugs.

Heading to my two favorite places in the world is heartwarming.
