The Princesses and the Pea-bble! Just a lame attempt to weave together the muses (yes; like juggling cats), the pebble, and today’s newsletter. A wordsmith I am not.

You make it all look so easy! The core theme, to me, is how all manner of preoccupations distract us from seeing and participating in what is around us.

I must confess, that after reading Karbie’s reply today I realize how small my own pesky pebbles really are. Perhaps the sound of James Taylor’s smooth, kind voice will indeed deliver a healing message. For us all.

Yes...you picked right up on the seeds of the core. Have we become so adept at looking forward to the next task that we cannot enjoy the one in front of us?

Pea-bble...the muses wish they would have thought of that!😂

Tried to highlight that sentence about hearts and brains. Ha! Had a stroke on Saturday, and am working on both right now. Doing well, but tire easily. I'm reminded that my quest for balance is life-long.

Hi Karen...I’m so glad you are here. Can you believe we’re coming up on 5 years of connection.

If I remember correctly, this is not your first stroke. A good part about that is often the second go around with something offers a sense of I’ve conquered this before and I can do it again? 🤷‍♀️

Sending love healing wishes.

I know! Crazy!

Nope, you must be thinking of someone else. This is my first, and hopefully last. Scary stuff, but so far so good. So, so grateful.

I'll take them. Thank you, friend.

I'm envisioning good care all around...medical staff, inside-out fluffing your pillow and Lilly snuggling close.
