In bed by 11awake by 12
toss & turn till 1
and up and dressed.
My foot thing is nearly gone.
I limp around on it now.
No bending of it tho.
Using it like a peg leg.
I am only permitted 3 tablets a day.
These are anti inflammatory and for pain.
Taken with food means that, come night,
I am living with the discomfort without pain-killer -
and that keeps me awake ............
It has been a strange period since returning from Iceland.
I have had a chest infection followed by this Gout.
The latter being a new one on me.
We all know our wholeness, and vulnerabilities, are all connected.
Emotional, mental, spiritual and physical are all intertwined.
One takes a hit - and nothing is sacred.
I have not functioned well during these days - work-wise.
I have not wanted to sit at my computer/office.
My leg aches when it's not UP - and my mind has not focused well.
I know what is going on.
It has not hit me emotionally.
But many things have slipped away
including keeping up with correspondence and human contacts.
I have been reading some
Lappy on my knee some
(Twittering and Facebooking some)
Music enough to drown in
but I can wallow in music for ever.
Currently I am spending the night with
Erykah Badu.
She has a new album out
but I have been listening
to the 70+ tracks I have on my mac.
I respect her/admire her.
Love to hear her speaking about life,
and music - EVERYTHING.
There is a fab 2 hour programme of her
chatting with Gilles Peterson
and playing music back2back.
Love it love it love it
(picture of Gilles and Erykah here)

It is Passion Week and, as always,
I am not locked in yet.
Easter for me, is a time when I want to spend time
pondering on LOVE.
That love that will not let me go.
That love to die for.
That love to live for
That love I want to receive
appreciate
value
capture
regenerate
return
reproduce
live .............
I am not one of those to be happy-clappy.
I want to enter into my soul
I want to connect with eternity
I want to hold hands with the Divine.
I will need to reflect on the journey through these days.
I will do that here - as honest and open as I can be.
You are beautiful
100% loved
unconditional
