I am often asked, “How do you do it?” I am asked this by many others who have started their own blogs only to find themselves with a dearth of something to write about. I have been asked this a half-dozen times today. The askers have the best of intentions, but they think they lack…
I seldom try to organize my thoughts when I start writing. Perhaps you’ve noticed. No doubt, you’ve noticed. I just start and let ‘er fly from there. “We probably need to start you back on regular treatment (formerly chemotherapy and immunotherapy, now just immunotherapy),” said Dr. Gooday at the Big-as-Texas Cancer Center (BATCC) on Monday.…
Yesterday I wrote about time distortion. I had a struggle with confusion about the time. The only inconvenience was to myself. It caused no damage. It caused no problems, other than the inconvenience previously mentioned. Today, I write about the absence of the distortion of time, for time will eventually stop. When I wrote, I…
I was a victim of time distortion. Needlessly, I might add, but victimized nevertheless. My old nemesis, amperage-interrupting fatigue, has returned, one of the many symptoms of CLL.

I sure am having a good time here at the Monroe Mandolin Camp. Thanks Mike and Heidi, for working so hard to ensure everyone has a good time. The setting is beautiful. The accommodations are delightful. The food is better. The musical camaraderie is best. There is a full moon hovering over Nashville tonight. I…
The Mando camp is underway. I have had the great fortune of reacquainting myself with many friends I met last year, some of whom have returned from every point on the compass from around the globe. The number of Aussies attending is remarkable, thus this remark. France, Denmark, and Sweden are represented, too. I will…
Ever been in a hurry and need to urgently complete some simple task on your computer only to have your computer decide to fail to cooperate in every manner? That is me this morning. My computer, printer, and internet connections are all like wayward mules, the smell of sweet feed in the hot evening breeze,…
“I love your positive attitude!” said many to others. “Your positive attitude is amazing!” said yet many more to the same others. “I don’t know how you can keep such a positive attitude!” said many more yet to the same others who were starting to find this all just a bit tedious. “Bleccchhhh!” said the…
