As always, I'm grateful for my Sacred Trinity: life, poetry, and my cat.

I'm also grateful that my recent hospital stay was a short one.

And I'm grateful to be in the home stretch of my current poem-in-progress.

[Starrlight in reply to mrmonk]

Sacred trinity- I like that ☺️

I hope your health is good Mr.Monk.

Will you share the poem with us when you’re finished?

[mrmonk in reply to Starrlight]

According to a battery of tests, my health is better than I expected, thanks! I hope you are in good health, as well.

Yes, I'll be making a post with a link to the text (and maybe audio) when I finish a first draft of the poem -- hopefully, soon.

[Starrlight in reply to mrmonk]

Oh good news! I’m healthy too ☺️

Can’t wait to experience your poetry.

[mrmonk in reply to Starrlight]

Oh, I love that word when it comes to reading poetry -- "experience" -- I think more people would enjoy all kinds of poetry if they didn't focus so much on trying to "understand" or "interpret," but just experience, as one does with a piece of music.

[Starrlight in reply to mrmonk]

☺️That’s so true! More enjoyable that way.

It's been hot and muggy here for weeks and today and tomorrow we've got a cool down. Going to walk in nature and enjoy the outdoors!

[Starrlight in reply to Marysblue]

Nature is where it’s at! Have fun.

Also grateful for the folks on this site. Grateful for today’s nice weather, having a gym nearby and the health to be able to use it, grateful for family and all the people in this country who are doing good and positive things for others.

Hi Starr,

I'm grateful I'm not as bad as yesterday. My mind is a little clearer, and I'm getting some things done.

As always, I appreciate your reminders to do this for ourselves.

[Starrlight in reply to Nothing_but_books]

Hi!!! Thats great 😌 I just had a mini breakdown but feeling a little better now. And during that time nothing worked except for a friend’s care and coco comforting me at the same time. Then I meditated. So glad today is better for you.

[Nothing_but_books in reply to Starrlight]

Oh, sorry about the breakdown, but terrific you're doing better.

I had a whiz-bang all out breakdown yesterday, still feeling shaky but better.

I get it, sometimes things don't work, and if you're like me, that's crazy making. Coco and a friend piling on! Aww... Now you just gotta get off the dog stink. 😊 🐶

💜💜

[Starrlight in reply to Nothing_but_books]

Thank you! Yes, when things don’t work I freak out. I had a worry overload I think. I thought it was due to a recent med change but I feel better so I don’t know. I gave Coco a bath yesterday she smells good 😂

[Nothing_but_books in reply to Starrlight]

Aw, that's nice. Sweet Coco. My boy used to jump in a smelly creek as soon as he was bathed. Just to fix my wagon. I miss him.

I like imagining you snuggling Coco.

[Starrlight in reply to Nothing_but_books]

Awwww ha! My girl rolls in the grass right after her bath.
