poem
 Op Note XXXVII didn ’t have a choice.  One of those stem to stern incisions. All of her spilled right out. The assistant ballasted escaping guts while I suctioned out all the blood. Had to inspect every square inch. The things we saw that day. Whoo boy. At least I ’ve never seen anything like that. Not kidding. Shredded from the inside like a scythe. Couple cans of spilled paint candy caning together in spiraling maroon/purple swirls. Had to patch every hole. Cut out the unsalvageable. Held pressure on all the rest. The next day she was somehow doing better . Extubated. But in a bad way. Basically just a hea...

poem
LaundryI gather laundry from the dryerIn one full-armed embracing bundle,Eschewing the basket, and transferThe clump of clothes to the bed for the folding.This pile is your goddam life;The ceaseless flattening, sorting,Un-creasing represents your present.Those stray dropped socksAnd yellow collared shirts are the past.You can always go back for them later.The future is this warm cozy sweaterThat smells like lavender oils.I want to wear itBefore it cools.So I better finish the folding fast1/24/21  (Source: Buckeye Surgeon)

Fermented Foods and Your Gut: Why They Are So Good for Your Health
Do you have more than the occasional abdominal upset? If you find yourself singing the Pepto-Bismol jingle most days, why not consider adding more fermented foods to your diet.  You don’t have to go to a fancy health food store to buy exotic-sounding ingredients.

The March of the Flowers
Here is the sacred order of the flowers. Use this list as a way of putting your garden together. I’ve listed bloom times, colors, and most of the heights. Your work here is to figure out how much sun you have because these are mostly full sun. Every now and then a supposedly sun-loving plant will survive (gasping and leggy) in partial sun but it’s no fun for either of you. Now go forth and garden. March 1) crocus 2) snowcaps (white) 3) scylla sibirica (blue, low-growing, spreads beautifully) 4) hyacinth 5) forsythia 6) heath (piney flowering low shrub that spreads) April  1) Bulbs like daffo...

poem
Chaff Let ’s learn to make jamSpend the day picking berriesLaughing at our blue stained handsLet ’s learn to make flourThresh our wheat from the chaffGrind the seeds with a coffee millLet ’s learn to make soapWear aprons and gogglesAnd boil our lavender lilac oilsLet ’s choose a wayTo frame our days As a series of attempted tasksLet ’s pretend we don’t careAbout what happens in the endWe ’ll start with a winking ironyWhile all the timeEarnestly hopingOur warm biscuitsLoaded with sweet jamTaste utterly deliciousLick our fingers andForget to wash our hands.7/14/20 (Source: Buckeye Surgeon)

Simple Ways to Make Your Home into Your Sanctuary
Suddenly, because of the pandemic, our homes have become one-stop shops. It’s where we work, teach our kids, and attend religious services. It’s where we sleep, eat, and relax (in theory). Besides taking walks and running urgent errands, most of us are staying in. So, it’s helpful to make our homes into a place we actually want to be. Currently, our homes need to “replace a lot of the ‘feel-good’ emotions we had in going out,” said Victoria Vajgrt, a professional home organizer in San Francisco. For example, she said, the yoga studio helped us to relax, while romantic restaurants helped us to reconnect to our...

A Grace-Filled Beauty Routine
There’s nothing anti (opposed or against) about it. I am aging, and a wise woman once said, “When you argue with reality, you lose.” And the reality is, I have reached an age where I find myself in the “anti-aging” section. Much the same as one moves through the children’s section, to misses, to women, and so forth — there’s an anti-aging section. The nature of this matter is time, therefore, I don’t want to waste any more time opposing my own reality. I don’t want to lose any more time in the anti-aging game.  As to not oppose aging, the counteraction would be t...
