The world pulls me out– music, my work, my children, my love, my friends. I am getting used to this weird visual perspective and my sight is improving albeit slowly. Still it’s hard to focus on a task, and I wonder if my inability to focus my vision is the cause.

I decided to continue on after a year, because this document had become a treasured reflective spot in my life. There are some changes in "Year 2," expanding options for my weekly poem beyond sonnet to add some other forms-- rondeau or triolet, villanelle. I added the decima in late January 2010, and the pantoum in August. Definitions of each form appear below. I continue to post a photo daily, but may post several pictures taken on one day over the course of a week if I have an interesting series. I may even post an old photo if I'm writing about something I'm thinking back to. I'll continue to have fun with this project; I hope you will too. For Year 3 I tried including other people in the self-portraits that accompany my poems, adding "Musical Sundays" to post mp3s of my music, but these petered out in a few months. This is simply a place for my daily thoughts & photos, and weekly poems in the forms I love. Onward...!
Ah…somethings in life are always a blur even with good vision. :-)

Oh my. Clearly something has happened while I’ve been mostly off-line, Marilynn. Sorry to read that you are having vision issues.

All seems to be progressing well to fix things.
