Connie's Corner

Getting caught up...

I finished this week's Cache Class assignments last night and got a "well done" from teach on the last one, the one I had the most trouble with. That made me feel really good. We had to write a fight scene in third person...twice...with the POV from each character. It was very hard for me since I shudder at confrontations. But with that thumbs up, I think I could do another. Isn't it amazing what a little encouragement can do for one's spirit?

My daughter in Delaware has strep, she thinks,...since Friday night. She tried to go to work yesterday but left at lunchtime. She has a temp and won't go to the doctor, even though I offered to pay. She's so stubborn...just like her dad...Tauruses, yikes! I double worry because she's so far away.

I haven't heard anything about Mr. Poe's graveside visitor. His birthday was yesterday. I guess he's gone for good. Too bad, it kept the mystery of his death alive. Speaking of which, I read someone is making a movie of the last few month's of Poe's life. That should be interesting and a must see....will investigate further.

My tarot study is coming along nicely, but the more I know, the less mystery there is about them. There are so many symbols on each card and so many different ways to interpret each card because of that... Well, I think you could suit yourself, if you know what I mean, on the interpretation. The only odd thing I find is I continue to draw the same card for my past position...over and over... There may be something to it. One never knows for sure. I'll bet there's a story in that somewhere....

It is supposed to be 74F here today...and sunny, a red ribbon day for sure! So I am getting out in it...

until next time....c
