I barely recognize the
person looking out at me in the mirror every morning as I shave. That
person in there is so old. How can that image the mine? Even so, that
face getting more and more ancient I don't really spend a whole lot
of time examining it except perhaps from a novice artists point of
view. There are certainly a lot of dark spaces shady spaces caved in
places on that face that might be worthy of sketching. But it was the
other day when I was at the bus stop taking if you sell these in the
bright pre-spring sunshine. I took a number of images and did not pay
much attention until later on my bus trip when I was selecting one of
the images the post on my Facebook page. I flipped through the images
that I had just taken a few minutes earlier and stopped dead in my
tracks. It was an image of an old guy with serious old guy
skin. This was me! This was my skin crinkled and folded and looking
almost like paper getting ready to be blown away by the winds of
time. Luckily I was on public transit and I had other things I needed
to attend to immediately so I shut the image to the back burner.
Now, that I've had some
time to accept the image (and I have not accepted it completely) have
to figure out what to do with language however that will take some
time to because once again is getting shipped to the back burner of
my life. Yesterday, I messed up my computer screen I quite fully
maxed out the image made as large as I could so I could read some
font on directions on how to printed image I was going to run through
my new ink cartridges on my printer. By the time I gotten the fonts
large enough to read had forgotten what the project was for but I
could not retrace my steps and minimize the screen on the computer.
I've done everything I can think of. I even called tech support as
well as my son Mark Anthony. So far I've not been able to get my
computer back up and running way it should so I can write and print.
I'm sure it's just an easy fix and I am just making more out of it
than I need to. Fortunately, for me I have this great laptop I'm able
to at least run my blog postings from the laptop. Mark Anthony was
able to remote in to my screen but cannot find the problem. I think
it's just me and the way that tried to explain the issues. Again like
I said lucky me I have a backup computer just like that.
I'm sure I'm going to
write more on this issue in the next couple of days. Dianne had just
finished preparing her taxes. Dianne strongly suggests that I should
probably file. I don't think I filed my taxes for the last three
years at least. Since I haven't been earning money I hadn't thought
that was an issue but Dianne suggests that perhaps I'll be getting
some money back and I need to file. This really kind of freaks me out
but maybe I can couple hundred bucks here are their would help with
home health if nothing else. It's just part of this process of
growing up. It's time that I do I certainly have a face for it…
