I'm sorry to hear your daughter is slow to mend, Susie but she is in my thoughts.

Hugs to all.

patience is often my dearest, most honest friend.

And worth waiting for, if your poem of one post-scroll up is anything to go by. :-)

Sometimes we have to lie in wait until the elusive prey happens by. A very insightful commentary on the writing process.

Just out of earshot, those words, or on the tip of your tongue. Yes. Wonder what would bring them out in a renewable way.

Maybe after a good night's sleep, they appear in fully formed phrases.

Oh Susan, I've played this game far too many times, losing it so many!

I'm glad to hear you're a patient player, you'll end up having a better understanding of the moves and will win the game.

Please catch that mouse, Susie.
You have a good start right here. Please try to remain patient. :)

BTW, my Susie had a shock for me tonight. Her husband wants them to move back to his Trinidad. They are to try planning for April 28. I like them in South Houston.
She writes music and reads my stuff, sort of liking it, and helps keep me straight.
