The full moon actually issn't until tomorrow at 1PM EST, but it sure looks full enough tonight! it's also known as the Hunger Moon, and both names are self-explanatory in the throes of winter.
Quote of the day:
"My life is but an instant, an hour that passes by."
~ St. Therese of Lisieux
An old boyfriend from high school that i have kept in touch with now and then over the years recently told me that he has written his obituary - not a euology, just an obit. i told him he couldn't make a statement like that and not send it to me, so he did. It is very matter-of-fact, listing his parents, siblings, wife, high school and college, and thirty years of work with the government. There is a nice quote from Shakespeare about death, and that's it. He didn't have any messages for the future. I'm not sure how to comment on it. I'm not sure how if I would be trying to send a message to those that follow either - do I have any words of wisdom or wit to share at the end! A lot of people must do it, tho, because there are all kinds of resources available online. I just had never thought of it before, altho I had wondered now and then what they'll say about me
Abruptly changing the subject....
Eleven days ago, I wrote about the sagao of trying to get a Libre2 Reader for the sensors I have. This evening, at 6:45PM, I'm happy to report I now have a reader and it is charging up. Oh I didn't get it from the pharmacy - that prescription is still "pending". Instead I dug about online and ended up in a place called The Diabetic Warehouse and ordering it There were a couple other places that carried them for better prices, but they required a prescription; this place did not. And no, I haven't cancelled the order at the pharmacy because I am genuinely curious to see if it ever even comes in - I have my doubts it was even ordered.
