Finding Joy

Monday again and Diana will pick me up at 10:45 to go in to the Outpatient Surgery Center to have my second eye cataracted lens removed and a clear one put in place.  The first one (left) last Monday worked very well.  It was as if someone had pulled up the shade and everything became clear.  So, once the right one is fixed, I'll be finished with this process - except for continuing drops three times a day in each eye for who knows how long - 2 or 3 weeks I think.  Then I can get glasses prescribed to correct the astignatism and I'll be like new.  .....January is always my month for getting doctor appointments out of the way.  February I do taxes. The rest of the year is up for grabs - whatever grabs me at the moment is usually what I make happen.  Speaking of that - Yesterday was the first of five 2-hour sessions at the Yogatorium with seven delightful people who will be doing soul-searching to design and begin living their own strategic life plans and thus be happier.  Every time I've led one of these workshops before, the results have been truly amazing so I expect the same again.  As before, I, too, will be soul-searching - my favorite pastime these years.  What wondrous ideas become unearthed!  It seems there is always more joy available each time I look.  Thanks be to God!
