scleral contacts
reshaping my eyes so far
I can see clearly
everything I need
for these expensive lenses
is right before you
costing me an arm
and a leg for the best sight
I am filled with joy
seeing clearly again

First Outing Since the Pandemic Began
Today, I had lunch with a writing friend of mine. We planned this a few weeks back, and I am glad it actually took place.
I was afraid I’d get too anxious and back out or far too afraid to even go. This was actually my first outing to sit down and eat at a restaurant (outside on the patio) since the pandemic began.
We decided on a place called Relish in Raleigh, which is about an hour and thirty-five minutes away from me. We had a delightful time. The food was great. The service was excellent. And it is a pet-friendly environment.
These days, I pretty much have to have Jernee with me if I venture away from home for too long, so this place being all it was and so much more, was definitely a Godsend.
All work and no play
Makes Jernee a grumpy dog
Today we had fun
Outing with a friend
Delicious food to savor
A pet friendly place
We will go again
When I’ve gathered up the strength
It had been too long
meeting
professional word
left by a fellow artist
could mean something big
Yesterday, I read a comment on a previously published The Grieving Room newsletter that was left by a fellow writer who is also an entrepreneur and visual artist that said, “Adore your ✍🏽 when you are serious about the “dream” publishing gig let’s talk.” Many of you know that I dream of working professionally and full-time as a writer/editor/content creator. This same writer and entrepreneur approached me a few months back, and I hadn’t had the energy to take on anything else that would drain me as it was right after Chrissy had passed.
She expressed her thoughts about the vision she has and I had definitely been a listening ear. The beginnings of it were still bouncing back and forth in her head. However, she stated she would have everything sorted and closer to fruition by late summer or early fall. So, here we are …
We have a call today at 11:00 am. My response to her upon sending a follow-up email to her comment was, “I am interested in a full-time writer/editor/content creator position, and I am extremely serious about this.” Phone numbers were exchanged, call time and date noted, and in less than one hour, I will speak to someone who has been reading my work for years and is interested in helping me help them take their brand to higher heights.
I pray there will be good news. Whatever occurs, though, I will share it with all of you.
Peace and blessings.
