Summer school is only two weeks away!

I know .. I have enough going on and stuff, right? C'mon, friends! You know me! And to be totally fair, I did think about this, that maybe I should sacrifice and "watch my mom" and cultivate my stress to a new level. Jill, one of my coworkers, simply assured me "You need to do this". And she's right. There's a sense of normalcy in returning to academia, to the harried, exiliarating chaos of it all. Reguardless on what is happening to my mom, time is still going on and I have to take care of myself. What I had to work out emotion-wise is I am not abandoning her by "living". She is right in the front of my thoughts. And Lord! Be with those who don't take care of her right .. we will be there every day!

Update: She is leveling off a little. She now has a feeding tube and we may get to move her to a skilled nursing facility (Fancy term for "nursing home") later this week.

I love to write. My favorite classes are the writing classes. My last post was a short story I did for my Creative Writing classes a few semesters ago. I recalled a movie that starred Peter Strauss and Judith Light as a couple where "she" was the one abusing her spouse. It was wild to see that, since Americans have been conditioned that women were always the victims of such violence. I wrote that piece, mainly to be a smartass, but the more I wrote, the more I wanted to. It took on a dance of its own. Since fiction is fact somewhere, it does make you wonder how often this twist happens?! Since I've been living quite a bit at the hospital my Mom is is, I have seen a lot of coupes similar to the one I wrote about. And I wonder ...

The nuances of the comments are wonderful, but let me assure you .. I am not a victim! I did see a few years ago, that the possibilities exist between many couples. But, as I told Ma, Cee will not go down without a fight. Do not worry. I am fine!

I do want to warn you, I will write deeper subjects along the way ... I am a poet at heart, but I want to challenge myself. I want to get my imaginations on paper.

The clip of my eyes .. taken from a recent pic I used as my profile .. reflect my inner surface. They are truly the windows of my soul, my imaginings, my thoughts. I usually have them hidden first thing in the morning behind my thick glasses .. soon to be hidden behind bifocles. When I have contacts on, I eyeliner, shadow, and black kohl-them-up, making my brown eyes clearer, more penetrating. I once could not look at anyone deep in the eyes .. too shy, too evasive, too knowing. Now, after so many business classes and public speaking seminars, I can do this. I want to let the other person know he or she has my rapt attention. Therefore, make my eyes more attractive, more fathomless, drawing you in, and keeping you captive! Sexy!? Yeah, that too! (grin) I won't lie to you 'bout that! I'm old enough now!

Do have a great week!

Creative writing, anyone?

	Marilyn发表: Cee, I have not been by in awhile my friend. I know it is shameful.... I am happy to hear that you are living your live and expressing the this great talent that you have been blessed with. Your mom understands sweetie your need to continue to live life and knows and appreciates your love and faithfulness to her. I know in my heart of hearts and speaking as mom myself, I would be more sadden if I were your mom to think that my children had put there lives on hold and were not continueing to live their lifes. As mothers our greatest joys are seeing our children fulfill their dreams and liveing up to all their potentials. You are a very loving and faithful daughter and your mom is fully aware of this my friend. God bless you and I will keep your mom and your family in my prayers.~HUGS~Marilyn~ 5 月 20 日
	Sarah发表: Cee--the very BEST way to honor our parents is to live well, live thoroughly, live growingly, as you do so adeptly. Sally forth, Cee, live well for your mama who raised you! 5 月 17 日
	BP发表: I hope everything is going okay. I haven't been around much myself lately and for that matter have an even then much of myself lately. Slowly getting there and with any luck I'll be "normal" in a few days. Billy 5 月 16 日
	Pat发表: Hi Cee, I enjoyed your story - very well done. But the weight ratio doesn't have to be 2 to 1 - there are some men, I suspect, who wouldn't fight back for fear of hurting their partner. I must say that I have mixed feelings about you "exploring deeper". There are so many distressing subjects in this world - should we ignore them? - of course not, but do we need to write about them? - perhaps. Since I have become a parent I find any tragedy involving children very distressing - perhaps if you just avoid "killing off children" I will be ok! 5 月 12 日
	Greg发表: I would love to take a creative writing class. Your last entry was very intriguing and pulled us in... All be well with you and your loved ones and Happy Mom's Day, Greg 5 月 11 日
	Ms.发表: Write on Cee, write on!! I can't wait for you to get "deeper". These are truly subjects that affects us daily, unfortunately, so e do have to face it! I'm sorry to hear about ma, but she'll be alright! Just keep praying and trusting God. The "eyes" pic......down right SEXY! You go girl! 5 月 9 日
	GLENCAIRNLAIRD发表: ' my eyes are truly the windows of my soul' - So why hide them behind all that chemical gunge? I too was interested in one or two replies - they obviously have nt quite fathomed the real You ! My Mom spent her last 4 years receiving 24 hour care in a nursing home. No matter what happens in the future memories of her will always remain in heart. No school! Think of all the spare time you will have to write a novel ! I see our Queen has been a hit in Virginia! 5 月 9 日
	Amy 发表: Cee, What a great gift to be able to write! And your eyes are beautiful! Take care, Amy 5 月 8 日
	BP发表: Cee, Oh how I would love to attend a creative writing class. The thought of going back to school is very intriguing to me. While I was at the University it was definitely a time of further discovery and great personal exploration. I was always enthusiastic, but the thought of going into something which I know I don't have too much of a talent for is a little bit daunting, to say the least. However, in the past when I had a weakness in a given area, I would work diligently to improve and it would end up becoming a strength. Writing essays in an expository manner was a weakness, but it ended up becoming something that I was able to excel at, albeit with much more work than the average person. I often wonder if I could improve through a creative writing class, but for some reason creativity seems to be one of those things which truly eludes me. I often go to my brother with some of my ideas and he comes up with interesting quips that would have never even occurred to me. Oh well, enough of this drivel. I love the story, even though it was an extremely serious topic. Also adore the sexy eyes. When I was a new injury all of the nurses were drawn to my eyes, for some inexplicable reason. They used to tell me I had such unbelievably deep green eyes that they often fell into a trance. It doesn't work anymore, but it was fun while it lasted. Billy PS sorry if there are too many errors, but I am backing up my hard drive and it has slowed down the operation of my computer so I'm not able to pick up when this thing has made a mistake or I have misspoken. I do this often enough now that the majority of people know to forgive me anyway. 5 月 8 日
