The Dangling Conversation
Song by Simon & Garfunkel

It’s a still-life watercolor
Of a now-late afternoon
As the sun shines through the curtain lace
And shadows wash the room
And we sit and drink our coffee
Couched in our indifference
Like shells upon the shore
You can hear the ocean roar
In the dangling conversation
And the superficial sighs
The borders of our lives
And you read your Emily Dickinson
And I my Robert Frost
And we note our place with book markers
That measure what we’ve lost
Like a poem poorly written
We are verses out of rhythm
Couplets out of rhyme
In syncopated time
And the dangling conversation
And the superficial sighs
Are the borders of our lives
Yes, we speak of things that matter
With words that must be said
Can analysis be worthwhile?
Is the theater really dead?
And how the room has softly faded
And I only kiss your shadow
I cannot feel your hand
You’re a stranger now unto me
Lost in the dangling conversation
And the superficial sighs
In the borders of our lives

@shoelady60,

Good evening so glad you are doing good. Hey I start that journey at the end of November
through December many tests and doctors involved. This is my cancer team.

The Game was a nail biter the cats outside was looking at the house when I let out a
scream. I think our entire block was glued to the TV so if anyone was in trouble it had to
wait until the Game is over. 😎

Lady you will not believe this but we will be in the 40’s tomorrow morning it will warm up
a bit later in the day. 😎🎈All I want is Coffee in the morning and a warm Jacket and I think
I will wear my Iris Apfel Jacket and I have many. 💕

Goodnight.

@taci,

I hope you are testing negative tomorrow remember no fever reducer in order to have a clean
negative reading. Taci I think your husband may need something for his discomforts.
I hope he is able to sleep I was not able to sleep well.

Niece is out of the woods she is testing negative. I went out today to do errands and I had
my mask on I was the only one wearing one oh well whatever. 😎

In December I should be done with all the cancer stuff. I have a great team and I am so
grateful and lucky to have them behind me and it took a team. Everything starts after
Thanksgiving and it will be one visit after another and then if all tests are well I am one and done until the next thing come and it will LOL! Always something. 😎

I hope Oodie got the pin. Taci I got my HD Set at the very last minute in fact I ordered it
and within maybe four days it was at my door I held my breath as I open the boxes I love
it. This is just good costume pieces now I do have the real thing but due to security i do not
talk about those pieces. 😎🎈

Take care of your husband and soon this too shall pass.

Some tea may help.

Peace Out Peeps enjoy your evening. 😎

Shoelady, Glad your checkup went well, Love the 1 year is 16 months, very funny.

Sheba, Oh, glad you noticed. Hope Oodie noticed about the Turkey pin because one showed up and now it’s sold out.
You do have quality care. I’m pretty much back to normal, just waiting to test neg. Hubs has it worse than I do/did and his fever is much higher than mine ever went. I’m like your husband, just go to sleep for a few days and try to ride it out. I understand why you need to take a different action and am glad for you that it works well. How’s your niece doing. Is she feeling better?
Have a good evening!

That game was a squeaker, for sure! Down to the last play. Scream as loud as you want as long as the neighbors don’t think you are being killed!🤭😂 One down, 16 more to go.

Doctor’s appointment went fine, just a checkup. I do need to get a few tests done in the next couple weeks/months. She said I ‘ll see you in a year if all stays the same. Went to schedule the next appointment and the girl at the desk said January. I said no, one year from now. She said yes, January, 2026!!😲 So, in medical terms, one year is 16 months. Maybe that is what Taci was talking about.

Going to try to take it easy this weekend. Knee has been bothering me from all the running around.🏃‍♀️ Sending cool hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖

Here’s looking at you and enjoy what you do. 😎🎈
