Got my internet up today. House is unpacked to the point where it is no longer insane, but merely messy. We are discovering mystery items that none of us remember buying. Also I have misplaced my Kindle. I hope it will roll to the surface soon.
I am going to sit to write tonight. The last ten days are the longest I have gone without writing in years.
Here are some pictures from inside the house. I am showing you walls instead of floors. The floors are passable now, but strewn with stuff.

The one in the frame is a print out of 'Adieu farewell earth's bliss' by Thomas Nashe. It is also called 'A litany in time of plague. I keep it to remind me of Kit. It is a clear bit of poetry-- shiveringly dark, alien, with that strange feeling of close/not close, that the early moderns bring.
'This world uncertain is--' then, as now.
I still want to meet up, sometime soon. I realize I missed you this time around. Let's make a plan.
Let me get back to you after Thursday. Things are highly unsettled & my next challenge is trying to get my psych meds prescribed again.
The postcard of an Irish homestead caught my eye, too.
The little house picture is from Scotland. Anteros sent it to me, I love how serene and clear it looks, so different from the place I live.
When we go away for a weekend (like our Bed and Breakfast weekend just ended) I put my ipad in the middle of the suitcase with clothing above and below and all around the sides, so no breakage is likely, even if the suitcase is dropped!
