I will be honest, I did not write this at 3am on Tuesday. I knew I would be rushed for time and did not want to try to make sense in the middle of the night. So I am writing this throughout the day on Monday. This will most likely be my last post before…
Funny how the world works. I have affirmation cards at work and I pulled one today. (note: I randomly – without looking – select a card each day) This is what the card said: “Loving others is easy when I love and accept myself. My heart is open. I allow my love to flow freely.…
We leave tomorrow and the surgery is in two days. Tomorrow at this time, we should be more than halfway to the coast. I would like to say that I slept really well again last night. However, not so much. I slept enough, just restless and BIZARRE dreams. I have mentioned in previous posts just…
Three days from now, I should be in surgery. While I have the occasional catastrophic thought, for the most part I still feel very confident that all will be fine. My two biggest worries right now are getting to the pre-op appt on time (avoiding getting stuck in California traffic jams) and pain. We are…
I woke up this morning…yes, I slept pretty well again last night with the help of diphenhydramine. Anyway, I woke up this morning with the sunrise and it occurred to me that there are only 4 days until my surgery. It startled me a little. Why does that sound a whole lot closer than 5…
Today’s post is a bit less focused. I think it is because I am less focused. If you read yesterday’s musings, you know that I am not sleeping well. Unfortunately, last night was worse. While the gentle rain and cool breeze made for optimal sleeping conditions, I awakened at 12:11am – fell back to sleep…
The mania and obsessive-compulsiveness hit over the weekend. I got an amazing number of things done. In fact, I did everything I intended to do and still had time to watch some television and go out for an anniversary dinner. Yesterday morning I continued to feel pretty wired. This is all made even more interesting…
As the days pass and the day of my surgery approaches, I am faced with a dilemma. However, while others will hopefully not face the same situation, many may find themselves in a place or time where they must face similar issues. I have indicated that I will likely be away from work for 6…
I don’t know what others do in the last few days before STAAR surgery (surgical thoracic aortic aneurysm repair), but I am occupied with a variety of things. Yesterday I completed my will, a power of attorney, and a power of attorney for health care (also known as advanced directives). I have always disliked this process,…
On June 28, 2012, now over 9 weeks ago, I injured my shoulder. My chiropractor believes that I tore something – possibly a torn rotator cuff. Prior to that time I had adjusted my workouts, but was still pretty pleased with them. The blurry photo below gives you an idea where I was at the…

There are only two days in the year that nothing can be done. One is called yesterday and the other is called tomorrow, so today is the right day to love, believe, do and mostly live.
