And in the midst of this wide quietness

A rosy sanctuary will I dress

With the wreath'd trellis of a working brain...

Studio

Slowly starting to work again, so thought it would be a good time to share and say thanks for all the well wishes and concern with my recent surgery.

New ideas sparking as I rested much of the last four weeks, which will slowly appear, and grounding myself more as I edited away being on Facebook, and keeping my internet time very limited. Reading Nicholas Carr's latest book, The Shallows, which explores the internet's effect on our brains. I know for me, it has been a ten year ride that has eroded parts of me and allowed parts of me to emerge that I don't like and the lack of time on it has been calming and centering.

Medical Moments

I have been a bit occupied this last month with some medical issues, but feeling physically better lately, more posts should follow, and doing something new for my health, I have started doing yoga. I really enjoyed the first try at this, and have seven more sessions ahead, will keep you posted...
