I deleted the non-fat survey because it hurt people. I'm sorry I posted it. I hope you can forgive me.

Not much to say this week, nothing much has happened.
Dad continues to improve. :) That makes me happy. :w00t:
Friday night I spent some time at a family get together. The food was quite tasty. A good time was had by all I think.
I guess that is about it other than
Have as much fun as possible!

QOW

What people expect to happen is always different from what actually happens. From this comes great disappointment; this is the way the world works.

Another week has passed

Another Sunday has arrived in Alabama.

Things seem to have settled down on the dad front. He isn’t any worse He may be a little better or it may just be I’ve grown accustomed to the routine. From where I sit, I can’t really tell. Now my sister is sure she knows what is happening. To hear her tell it, things are bad and getting worse. She has a knack for finding the least favorable outcome in most everything.

I had a nice photo walk on Saturday. It was a lovely fall day and I spent 4 or 5 hours at a local festival talking briefly with a few strangers, listening to bands, and taking photos. One of the bands asked me to photograph the concert in the cave Saturday night. That was quite a challenge. LOL Caves are dark and there was no special stage lighting. It will take a while to process all the cave shots to see what, if anything is worth keeping.

Other than that I’ve spent the last week going to work, helping my parents, running errands, and doing chores around the house.

QOW

“Love is what we are born with. Fear is what we learn. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life. Meaning does not lie in things. Meaning lies in us.” ~ Marianne Williamson


A few pretties for you

Another Sunday begins in Alabama. The weather says 10% chance of rain and it is raining now. LOL

I think I’ll head to the city for some Tahini and cheeses. Maybe I’ll stop and take some photos along the way. Initially I thought I might go to the zoo, but I’ve lost interest in that plan for the time being.

Friday, I had a wonderful evening visiting with friends. It’s been ages since I’ve hung out with other people just to have fun. Brightened up my entire weekend! It was a wonderful change from the currently depressing visits with my family. I really needed this emotional and spiritual recharge. Thank you two for the big dose of food, fun, and love. :-) hugz

Speaking of family, my dad goes back to the orthopedist in 3 weeks to see if his femur is healing. If it isn’t or it is getting worse, he will have to have surgery. I hope he doesn’t have to have surgery again. I’m ready for some of this to end. It has been dragging on four months now.

At work, there are two major reports due at the end of next week. I don’t know how that is going to go. I play a major role in one of them and a minor role in the other. None the less, there will be a lot going on with those and I’ll be really covered up the next few days. I’ll probably stop by work this morning for a bit and print out a few things.

QOW:

Wouldn’t you rather burn out doing something you love than plod along doing something you merely put up with?

* What’s out there waiting for you to take hold of?
* What’s most important to you?
* What can you do to embrace your own full life?

~ Nagarjuna

I’ve rambled on enough for this Sunday’s update.

I guess that is about all I have to say for now.

Enjoy the feature pictures I've managed to get together. :heart:
