Start up

  

This evening, C stopped to greet us

C is starting up his own business, washing garbage cans. Good luck to him. 

Active day, started with paper sorting in the garage and a visit from F and her mom before their trip to a butterfly farm. Then Fe infusion to noon thirty and N came to do yard work. I stepped into bucket of stagnant water. Lol. A and Nola stopped in for a visit. We rested up after the yardwork  Before dinner red and I walked and met up with HF and P and then C. Home prepared supper and sat out a few minutes  Did not go to webinar tonight either.  R sent me a note.   Really very achy and tired  seems like all day   

Two men in infusions clinic today:  in pain. Must be cancer., with talk of Keytruda and “port”. One lamented his age and never expecting the change wrought in two years: hiking Rockies then; couldn’t fly tomorrow to retrieve his truck in Dallas due to his treatment today I get it now, dealing with constant pain and unsteadiness. Sympathy for Zac.

Love is the topic

 

Leaving   Good bye, dear one

Distinction made between love as sacred impulse and as feelings. Me : to realize I don’t love someone l truly deeply love. R said “parts.”  Depletion and fulfillment. Love draws emotions out of you. Am Igetting this right?

Departure

 

Missed it!

I saw I’s plane in the air at 6:55 but could not snap a pic fast enough so just got the Air. Ain’t that always the way?  We left the house about 435 and had to turn around to go get the wallet with the ID three minutes later  Arrived in plenty of time with probably too many instructions for him and granddad walked him up to the security line After they rushed off without saying goodbye to me, dirty dogs! Red slowed me down So I thought I missed them, butThey did see me in the terminal entrance anyway. One more hug  Of course I found I had left the car engine turned on. Again  I hate those Automatic start buttons!  Email flurry already this morning. Amusing. We need to rewrite my morning startup. I guess excluding my grandson.

Hot time, summer in the city

 

Trio

Staying indoors it’s so darn hot. I have saddle sore from sitting so much At the top of my Right leg really hurts. S left early to bed but no hard feelings.  I’m feeling better, not trying to control everybody but the heat is irritating me. 

We finished reading The Hedge Knight. So good!  ALLAN also read Samuel to me today  I and I watched another Korean film, Memories of Murder. Very disturbing film. 

Broke down and wore the shorts

Day to Knight

What a fine hobby. 

Great surprise at the park when S, I and I took Red to the park in the early evening yesterday.  A club of knights was breaking up, but I got a chance to chat with a couple of them while the kids my progeny walked the dog for ten minutes. Fun!

Looks like an old Ser Dunc

Webinar friction

 

Last night

Stephan at Deutsch- English session today. Dread. But some smooth discussion after he launched a mini assault and we duked it out verbally.  “I resent…. Women don’t… I’m 70 yrs old..  I accept your apology.”  “I didn’t apologize. Gurdjieff paid the man who created friction at the Prieury. I like you; you’re an interesting person. I am rude; I work on that.”  Not dull.
