Where I Was Today...

Does this sculpture resemble DNA? According to the guide at the Morsani Center, that is what it is supposed to be...It was created by Art students at the University near my home. It is certainly eye-catching. According to the dermatologist, I have great skin, and I do not have to see him until next October unless something changes.

Where were you today?

If You Want A Job Done Correctly...

It has been a long two weeks...

Between doctor visits, home exercises and trips to an increasingly cold swimming pool to try and maintain the pain-free status finally achieved in September, I've been catching up on all sorts of things, from paperwork to sleep to a re-configuration of my bedroom closet so that I can now reach my clothing from a seated position when necessary. You've no idea what a nuisance it is not to be able to reach blouses, trousers, suits, robes and other items when dressing for the day or hanging up newly-laundered things. A woman friend who enjoys doing small projects looked at the unused and ill-conceived space in my closet and offered to re-configure the shelving, drawers and area used for hanging clothing. She did something the previous installer had not and used a stud finder to correctly position shelves and brackets so that I no longer worry about anything falling down. It took about three hours once we had the necessary hardware and she even patched the holes. My longtime handy man could not have done better and in fact, turned his nose up at this job.  This same woman friend also took me to the hospital for treatment of a cat bite and thrifting for some needed clothing. She is a jewel. The injury has healed and I can now type without wanting to wince.

Until Next Time...
