Findings

Just found another item I had thought was lost. A nice gift from a friend. A little worse for the wear, it is, but O Well, what can I do about it? Dwelling on it can only drive me crazy (er).

So, in finding things that I've lost, I see that:

Things are not always found where I expect them to be. At all.

The message from the universe has been to get my personal life more organized/neater. (I told my friends this earlier this week.)

I guess I just have to keep neatening up /straightening up / redding up until I find everything that's misplaced /displaced.

Good Bye Puffs

So, it seems that the airport security machines that were used when we left for Ireland in July 2007 and that I last saw my friend S pass through earlier this year will be retired soon. This article discusses the airport security "puff" machines that detect propellants. Seems that X ray backscatter machines will be utilized instead.

The Mantra

One of my friends reminded me today to keep my immune system well, by taking vitamins, prophylactic antibiotics before going to the dentist, and washing my hands to protect my endoprosthetics from infection.

I told her that I have a mantra at the end of each weekly class:

Wash your hands
before you touch your face
touch your hair
Eat or
Drink.

It's great---but tough---being a bionic person!
