Thanks Monty! That’s exactly what I’ve heard, that it feels like a sunburn. Some of the paperwork I received mentions good ‘ole cornstarch to relieve irritation. 🤷♀️
Desk sign: “I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain this to you.” 😁
(I thought this would have been appropriate when I did tech support, while Deb thought it would be appropriate for her desk when she worked in the president's office at a university.)
The baby is cute! Too early to be thinking grandmotherly thoughts, I hope?
I was touched by listening to your reading and reflecting on your grandmother’s letter. In my early days getting sober, I asked my sponsor how people living in extreme poverty could live a life of spirituality? He replied, “You’d be surprised.”
Your past week (pre-trip north) through today has, to me, presented conundrums on living joyfully in the midst of... life? The lessons you’ve shared about doing so consist of staying in the present, practicing gratitude, being loving & kind, and having faith that the Universe is indeed friendly. Though at times showing an odd sense of humor!
Now I see there’s more use for cornstarch than thickening clear sauces! Back to the business of being present...
I once asked a friend, “Do you ever wonder if the wealthy and “privileged” are worse off than those who have little?” I suspect having and being “big” might be an impediment to a spiritual life… with all that “heaviness” to carry and uphold.
My friend Manu wrote a blog about the need to trim trees and plants so that they can grow healthy and strong. Does that work for people too? Similar to annealing metal?
Sadly for me my recent brain fog persists. I once shared that if I don’t know the facts, I make some up! Manu’s comment brings to mind pruning branches from the center of fruit trees. This allows sun and pollinators better access to the surrounding ones. And more fruit! I didn’t make that up...
Hopefully they've mentioned good skin lotion. You will probably feel like you've been sunburned. I'm betting you'll do this like a champion!

Taking it as it comes. 😊
Cornstarch? (Post-talcum powder baby powder) And drawings of babies/wee ones?? I sense a harmonic convergence in the offing. 🤔🤷🏽
I recently assured a health care professional that I cannot possibly be pregnant. 😂
Would radiation be contraindicated for women who are?
I looked it up... "doctors don't use radiation treatment during pregnancy."

I think it’s too soon, but I saw a post on IG recently that said something like:
Mothers of sons: Your son could be married with 9 kids, but you don’t know because he never mentioned it. 😂

Julia Cameron’s grandmother’s letters. :)

I’ve noticed such trimming in the orchards I drive past!
