THIS WEEK SO FAR


MONDAY
Amma was in New York for three days.
Here's a 5 minute CNN piece from 2007

TUESDAY
Read this again before  packing it to send to a friend
"Shadows In the Sun"
Essays on the Spirit of Place by Wade Davis
Monthly banking accomplished and bills paid
A new warning: as the poor get poorer they get cleverer
Late at night, unable to sleep, I wandered downstairs to the street to watch the storm approaching
 
Watched this library-loaned video

So enjoyable.  It made me think of Grace Forest

WEDNESDAY
A storm damaged tree lays cut up on the sidewalk

Looking in on the newest construction next to my local library
Yet another high rise condominium starts with excavation (sigh)
What a busy sky today, like flocked cloth
A domestic detail was accomplished
 Mahonia in flower on East 22nd Street

THURSDAY
An oh so helpful visit to the studio of
Ellen Saltonstall
(click on Kinetic Awareness)

 She who helped me so much in the past, has me back on a regimen of 'Theraputic Ball work' for my shoulder and neck injury, and I already feel the difference.

I walked home happy and lighter knowing it was good to wait, and good to stick with homeopathic remedies, and naturopathic solutions like body work.  Passing Styvesunt Square park three blocks from my home, I noticed a sign:
WOW
Free Mind body movement and more at lunchtime Wednesdays, Movies Thursday nights and  Tango Sundays, and some garden volunteer opportunities too!
FRIDAY
I'm meeting the friend, 'Archangel' Michael for a visit to The museum of Natural History Rose center (a promise I made to Grace forest) to the Halls of 'the Universe',  'Earth' and 'Biodiversity'

Post Script
Blogger is malfunctioning
I can't make the background color fill the post page
