Foods and Writing and Such

The water level in the Pond is lowering. There is a tiny "beach" over on the peninsula where six turtles are sunbathing. They're too far away for my camera. We had a nice rain last night and everything is shiny clean and green - except the dirt and the turtles, of course. The cicadas have not been singing yet today - someone said last evening they would be coming back out for another couple weeks, but haven't heard them yet - and it's nearly noon. I guess the cool weather drove them away? -----I'm back to writing a page a day again - except when I'm not at home. I'll talk with Coach Lisa tomorrow and perhaps get some more inspiration. I can't seem to even think about writing a book - just snippets, as she calls them, for now. ------- Martha and I bought groceries at Whole Foods in Greenville before we left on Sunday and I had a ball last night sampling the gluten free goodies I bought! It seems ironic to me - I had been cramming in all the whole wheat grains I could in hopes of a good diet with lots of fiber - and it turns out that may have been part of what has been irritating my system. I do know the wheat sensitivity is very high. So, now I'll find some other kind of grains - This health commitment I've begun is not easy!!!! Takes way too much attention - or at least a whole lot more than I'd like! I hate having to think about food all the time. But, if it weren't this, it would be something else!!!
