One Big Sigh

Fantastic news, my eyes are A OK.

Can you see the bird in this tree? I Can :)

Had a real scare a few days back, retinal detachment was its name. After visiting a friendly Brisbane ophthalmologist, having 6 tests and 4 consultations inside 2 hours I got the all clear.


So all my plans to get some expert skills when using my iPad voice friend, learning braille and a few other brilliant ideas can go into the 'not urgent' box. 
But, I do have some plans that came to light in the time after the scare and before the all clear. 
 
Sitting, watching life on the dam
 Plan No. 1: 
make time to relax everyday, get back into the routine of yoga, breathing deeply and making time for 'zen' moments every day.






Garden colour

Plan No. 2: 
remember what I really enjoy doing - thinking right back to childhood to make sure I don't miss any. Then ... do them, as often as possible. The list so far - gardening (already pruned 2 large bushes), creative art (have created one piece of garden art and planned 2 more), repair or revive furniture, reading, photography, & painting (2 in the planning).
Breathing fresh air with calm mind

Plan No. 3: 
review the things I can control, and want to control, that are important to me. Then simply, take some action.

Plan No. 4:
not there yet, but I am sure it's working its way to the top of my mind.

Good to put the past week or so behind me. Thinking a good long walk in the bush is the go!
