That was my ticket into the Family Support Group. Or four times. On nights that sh...

http://limitedvision1.blogspot.com/2014/03/three-score-years.html
Essays on Things Imperfectly Perceived by the Eye and the Mind of the Correspondent. Sunday, March 23, 2014. In 1954, March 24 fell on a Wednesday. Not very much eventful happened on that day. There appears to have been little of note, nor of historical importance that occurred. Truth be told, I don't remember much about it at all. Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window. Keep up the good work, my friend. So, to Donna, Robert, the rest of our 318,000 and me, I wish a Happy Sixtieth Birthday. Happy birthday to...

He has gone to have "the unkindest cut of all". After all, he's six months old now and soon to be a man (or not, if the operation goes as planned). When he wakes up and has recovered from the anesthetic, his new Mom and Dad will be waiting to take him home with them. I miss him already! You see, the Tall Lady took our cat carrier to wor...

Victor Hugo wrote that "music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.". Maya Angelou said " Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.". Sometimes, all of us need to crawl into that same space. In 1968, following the murder of Robert Kennedy, Dick Holler wrote the second.

Essays on Things Imperfectly Perceived by the Eye and the Mind of the Correspondent. Monday, June 11, 2012. When Bianca's adoption was rescinded on Saturday morning, I have to admit that the news wasn't entirely disappointing. For one thing, it meant that we get to keep our big, black beauty for awhile longer. For another, we could go out and do something fun that day. Before, but we thought we had a hazy notion of what was involved, so we agreed. Clients had already left with their new foster parents by...

Limited Vision: Too Many Chairs
http://limitedvision1.blogspot.com/2010/12/too-many-chairs.html
Essays on Things Imperfectly Perceived by the Eye and the Mind of the Correspondent. Friday, December 24, 2010. Empty chairs disturb me. They represent a loss, a void, a break in what was believed unbreakable, an uncomfortable interruption in the flow of the conversation.
