A Time Arrives

   For some months now my blog posts have gotten more infrequent. When I first began several years back, I tried to write every day. Lately I have been fortunate to get one done once or twice a week.

   Now I begin to realize that even a couple of times per week may also be more than I can do.

   I also note that, according to the stats kept by Blogger, that I have written 999 posts, so this one is number 1000.

   Maybe time to work on a different schedule…

   It takes some uninterrupted time for me to get my mind in gear and my thoughts organized these days. I realize that there is not much in them that is unique or new, but I do enjoy sitting down, thinking about things, and then putting them into printed form even if it is only on the computer.

   But I can't continue to count on that kind of time much anymore.

   Care giving does not seem to run on a predictable schedule. Not that it takes more time per se, or is more time consuming, but just more subject to change on a daily basis. It is not crises oriented, but availability for it is becoming more important.

   So I am operating more from an "I don't know" position when it comes to time management.

   When I do not post for several days, or maybe even several weeks or longer, it may not mean that we have a deterioration in health, but that the stringing together of uninterrupted time may be more difficult then.

   So please know that I do like to write these things, and will as time allows.

   Hold on, there is an interruption coming as I speak…..I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

   OK, coffee has been fixed and is now being consumed, back to this…

   With all that above out of the way, I wanted to leave you with a photographic moment the other night over at Epworth.

   Having arrived several minutes before sundown, I left my wife in the car and strolled over to a large magnolia tree to see if I could get a good shot of one of the flowers down on a lower limb where it would compose into a full flower picture.

   Later, upon loading the pic into the developing computer program, I noticed a black spot prominent on the very white flower. Upon further magnification it looked like this..

   Is that a mosquito on the flower? Or what?

   And there was a sunset of sorts, too.
