It won’t be Business as Usual and my September 15th LPUD
“Black birds tend to like shiny things.” ~ The Bloody Raven
A short post today.
My readers may have noticed my lack of activity over the last few weeks. Off-line life has taken a considerably higher priority what little motivation to write my usual piece plunged into a bottomless black hole. Comments, if any are oft left to a simple upvote when wit is not forth coming having stared at a given post for more than 20 minutes.
I still have plenty of material to continue my Republic of China series and some. It may have to wait. My latest acquisitions are a treasure trove of fun facts and figures that I could easily rationalize my debt payment plan being pushed back another three months. Deb saw through that. She knew this as a foolhardy act to conceal or coping in my grieving process rather than blame some Qing Stackitis variant.
Deb said, “Take a break, I’m well taken care of her now so get something that you like rather than spent a lot of unproductive time with me while I sleep.” The powerful analgesics do make her sleep plenty. Leaving the Hospice, I now get this feeling of Separation anxiety. We’ve been together more than 20 years and I’m still not ready to let her go. The next few weeks will be emotionally rough.
It won’t be business as usual.
I’ll try my best to remain consistently active here and attempt not to hang a little black cloud over the community.
My balance of liquid Leo tokens is a smide above 150 tokens with the help of a little exchnage of swap.hive, therefore I will power up the said balance with proof in the comments. Will that do? An afternoon Hazy pale ale is making me a bit well ...hazy.
Thank you everyone for all the prayers and support.❤

"Ahh can make a true sang aboot meyself,
Teel mah travels, haw Ahh aft endured days o’ struggle,
Trooblesome times, Ahh hav suffered greem sorraw at heart,
hav knoon in th' ship many worries,
the terrible tossin' o’ th' waves,
whaur th' anxioos night watch often took me at th' ship's praw,
when it tossed near th' cliffs.
Fettered by braw waur mah feit,
boond by frost in icey clasps,
whaur 'en cares seethed hot aboot mah heart -- a hunger tears froms within the sea-weary sool.
This th' cheil disnae know fur whom oan land it turns oot most favoorably,
Haw Ahh, wretched an' sorrowful,
on th' ice-cauld brine dwelt fur a winter in th' paths o’ exile,
bereft o’ coothie kinsmen, hung aboot wi' icicles;
Hail flew in showers. Thaur Ahh heard naethin' but th' roarin' brine,
the ice-cauld wav.
At times th' swan's song Ahh took tae myself as pleasure,
The gannet's stooshie ain th' voice o’ th' curlew insteid o’ th' laughter o’ men,
the singin' gull insteid o’ th' skitin' o’ meid.
Storms thaur beat th' stony cliffs,
whaur th' tern spoke, icy-feaithered;
always th' eagle cried at it,
dewy-feaithered;
No cheerful kinsmen can comfort the puir sool.
Indeed he credits it wee, the one who has th' joys o’ life,
dwells in th' city, far froms terrible joorney,
prood an' wanton wi' bucky,
Haw- Ahh, weary, aft hav had tae thole in th' sea-paths.
The shadows o’ night darkened, it snowed froms th' north,
frost boond th' ground, hail feel oan th' earth, coldest o’ grains.
Indeed, noo they ur troobled, the thooghts o’ mah heart,
that Ahh myself shoods strife wi' the high streams,
the tossin' o’ salt waves -- the wish o’ mah heart urges aw th' time
my spirit tae gang forth, that Ahh, far froms haur,
shoods seek th' homeland of a foreign fowk –
indeed thaur isnae sae prood-spirited a cheil in th' warld,
nur sae generoos o’ gifts,
nur sae bauld in his yooth,
nur sae brav in his deeds,
nur sae hen tae his laird,
that he ne'er in his seafaring has a worry,
as tae whit his laird will dae tae heem.
Not fur heem is th' soond o’ th' harp nur th' givin' o’ rings nur pleasure in hen nur worldly glory
-- nur anythin' at aw unless th' tossin' o’ waves;
but he has a longin', he who strives oan th' waves.
Groves tak' oan blossoms, the cities grow fair, the fields ur comely,
the warld seems new: Aye these things urge oan the eager o’ spirit,
the mind tae travel, in one who sae thinks tae travel far on th' paths o’ th' brine!"
Amen.
"The Seafarer"

It’s a tough road @kerrislravenhill…….
Liz took care of my Mom when she was battling cancer many years ago.
I wasn’t prepared for the emotional roller coaster…..
Praying for both of you, and toss me one of those pale ale’s across the border!😇😊
