Rosemary's Blessing

What is success?

To laugh often and much;

to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;

to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;

to appreciate the beauty;

to find the best in others;

to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;

to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.

This is to have succeeded!

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Rosemary's Blessing

Creator of all the world and lover of each of us,

• Help me to see the beauty with which you have surrounded me,
• The colors, the shades, the lights, the shadows, the shapes, the patterns,
• all the dazzling array of enchantments of the eye to which I usually pay so little attention.
• Help me to realize that I live in a many splendored land and
• to enjoy the splendors which you have given me.

Just in case you like to feed the ducks and pigeons…  Sign at the entrance to the community of Hilton Head Plantation.   The numerous man made lagoons often have a resident.  One stopped bike and walking traffic on a bike path I was using one nice winter afternoon.  They love to sun bathe.

The Status of The Hip:

1.  The whole process since Wednesday A.M. has been amazingly efficient and pain free (except when I forgot the pain med when moving from the hospital to the house).

2.  I can walk with a walker, fairly easily & every day more easily.

3.  I was told one hour of being up, one hour of rest.  So true.  After an hour sitting up, I am exhausted and can sleep an hour.  After a day of this, I am wiped out by 7:00. 

4.  Thanks for everything.
