We’re leaving for a week tour, south of this cold weather, with all of us in the ford, and I mean a full house: 3 adults, 2 girls under the age of 10, 2 guitars, 1 banjo, 1 fiddle, 1 uke, bags of doodads and wires etc. Three duffles, hot sauce, books, cds to sell, and earplugs. Cozy.
Thanksgiving on Thursday, as usual. Mom is deep into her dementia so I will visit her after the holiday, while we’re down there. Life is a crazy thing, and I don’t try to control it. I only vow to treat each moment preciously, and pay attention!
A quote that I can’t forget, spoken by a patient of Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn:
“Ten years ago I turned my face for a moment, and it became my life.”
