Tribute to M.C.Escher

For those of us who sometimes can't think right, or see correctly, looking at an Escher painting makes our issues seem minor. At least I think so. So enjoy this, okay?

    My father introduced me to Escher's work very young. One of the ones I like best is the hands drawing each other, though I never met an Escher that I didn't like.
    Thanks for this post - I love it.

    I have always been amazed how Escher could make impossible angles and happenings appear completely possible in his drawings. I particularly love the hand that is coming out of the drawing that it is drawing (if you know what I mean).

    I love looking at Escher's works. Several years ago, I used those drawings as a basis for a writing assignment for my students!
    Peace,

    My son LOVES Escher and went to the Escher Museum in Barcelona several months ago. What a trip!

    Remember his show at the Seattle Center about...uh-oh, gosh, over a decade ago now...well, I loved it. Funny how I recall things depending on my MS at the time---my cane during Escher.

no sooner had i written that last post than i came  down with a  fever and a raging case of cellulitis. needless to say i was admitted into the hospital the monday before thanksgiving and stayed until  the sunday  after. i did however order a turkey dinner on thursday, and they served a special dessert! since i came home, i haven't heard from my caregiver... so i called the office and spoke with her supervisor. it turns out that she was clocking  in and out all week! that's tantamount to fraud. don't know what'll happen to her. i have had two caregivers since. both i liked, but the first one lasted only one day, and the other hasn't had much experience. i'll give her a chance and we'll see what happens. good night, ttyl, and be well.

My MS Update 2017

Image
I entered last year celebrating by watching 'new year at the needle' fireworks display (The Seattle Space Needle) on a hospital TV.  I was in there from 12/27/16 to 1/3/17 with, I believe, cellulitis and a bladder infection.  I have been in the hospital several times since then, 5/19 to 5/22  with cellulitis. I didn't have any cuts so it must have been a cat claw poke or a bug bite... any break in the skin will do for those of us who are immuno-compromised. August brought me in hospital from 8.19  to 8/25 with the perfect trifecta -  cellulitis, vaginal and bladder infections. So, how am I doing? you might ask. Well,  36 years with MS and this is my current condition. From head to toe, here goes nothing. if you are newly diagnosed let me tell you here that mine is not a typical case, but still, you may want to stop reading now. head - intermittent memory lapses; I thank the heavens for post-it notes, I have three on my laptop now reminding me...

my back yard pt. 2

well. there's a new addition to the pet cemetery. last  week we lost Rajah, brother to nishita and punima who died in 2o18. he's buried adjacent to them. when dh was digging the grave, he found  a large skull of a dog (not ours), so he had to put a little more space than we would have preferred between the cats. i  imagine in thirty years or so, whoever buys the house and digs up the yard will be quite surprised. good night, ttyl, and be well in this year of COVID-19
