How do you like the new look? I think it will be easier to read as the font is larger and black on white is always easier on the eyes. I was motivated by a comment made by a friend of mine who had difficulty reading my blog in its previous format. So Helen, get reading. I know it’s a lot but I want your feedback. Also, feel free to share the link with whomever you want. Helen’s latest post at http://www.helenweaver.com is also an interesting read as is her book “The Awakener”.
We communicated with each other about our blogs and I found we had both written about rain. Without TV or newspaper I don’t keep up well with the news and had not known about the drought conditions in my former stomping grounds. I am glad they got rain. It seems we’ve been getting theirs…everyday! Another great storm the other night. My lawn is as green as can be.
I pray everyday for the earth and the gulf. I am sorry as a human being to be a part of this destruction. This weekend I am going to Sarasota and I am wondering if the oil spill has affected the beaches there and what impact it as had on tourism, the fishing industry and more. (at least I am driving a hybrid which reduces my dependence on fossil fuels). Keep on praying.
I am visiting a friend down there and it will be my first solo adventure in Florida. I am looking forward to cruising in my new car and listening to my ipod through the speakers and seeing some more of Florida and, of course, seeing my friend.
Do I see things changing in my life? Well…maybe. More courage? Or is it foolhardiness? More physical problems. As my shoulder heals with physical therapy, I find my left leg making up for lost pain. And the last couple of days I have had a real hard time with the transition from horizontal to vertical and vice versa. I get quite dizzy and sometimes a little queasy. I fear an aneurism but it’s not frightening enough to consult a doctor yet. I have consulted my sister instead. She doesn’t seem worried. Her friend who had brain aneurisms was extremely sick when she went to the hospital. Okay, I don’t know what’s wrong but I’ve checked my blood pressure and it is sometimes very low, which could account for the problem; but sometimes it is very high, so who knows. The cuff, a wrist type my dad probably ordered from some discount mail order house, is probably unreliable. It could very well be simple dehydration since I have been sweating so much in this extreme heat and humidity. I am drinking more water and less alcohol (haha) so hopefully, I will get better. Otherwise, good-bye all.
