Post Op Day 3, home

10-second video: Cheryl is just getting started on the back porch.

Too much of a good thing is wonderful.

Mae West

Too much Glacier? Sounds good.

Too much gratitude? Sounds great.

Too much downtime? My goal is to find the enormous blessing from this.

Post Op Day 2, home

White greeting card with two gold hearts
Small, everyday gestures, tasks, notes…challenging to imagine not seeing them.
Bird bath with brackish water
Daily chores, safety and equipment inspections, interior and exterior home inspections…all are done radically differently without sight. Photo: an animal, possibly a Racoon, pooped in the bird bath. Detection without eyesight would be cumbersome.

Prioritized priorities are an invisible 401k plan.

Mind, body, spirit, work, home.

We think, we move, we feel, we contribute, we dwell.

Be an example, not a warning.

You’re welcome.

Post Op Day 1, home

iPad watching Kevin Hart comedy
Searched Track & Field and it’s not until tomorrow. Then found Kevin Hart’s 2022 Comedy special.
33-second video: Couch potato training commences.

Priorities are a mindset.

dad

Your priorities are by design or by default.

If they are by design, you are nodding your head in agreement right now.

If your priorities are by default, you’re thinking, “huh?”

PS. From today’s two videos you can see in real time i’m putting world-class couch-potato ahead of world-class laughter. Cancelled today’s lunch meeting with former Disney Institute colleagues. i cannot trust myself, in their presence, to behave myself.

Good news, other news

8-second video: Just an unrehearsed (aren’t 99% of them unrehearsed?) moment to catch a seemingly insignificant moment.
Disney World driving map
Went straight at the first light. Under the water-bridge and past Space Mountain and TRON. The route home from Celebration, FL.

Slow and steady means nothing if you cannot gratefully practice it.

dad

What you know is worthless without application.

Eye surgery update, home

29-second video: #truth #humbled #insanelygrateful

Almost sundown.

Came outside to turn off a watering hose.

Took my glasses off and covered my right eye. By the way, probably doing this 20-40 times a day.

In this late-day moment, vision (still fuzzy) is the best it’s been since surgery.

Dare i say it’s much better than 12 hours ago?

In 36 hours i see Dr. Kumar for the “three-week” post op exam.

Can’t wait for him to see the progress with his instruments.

Feeling insanely blessed and grateful.
