I am still writing. But most of it is not for public consumption.
I have posted a few poems at my poetry blog.
I continue to log my bike rides on my cycling blog.
Here's a link to my most recent cycling log: October, 2018, rides... It includes a few pictures.

Son backpacked to Mt. Everest base camp in September/October. I'm still saying, "WOW..." He arrived back home safely (and mostly in tact) on October 12. What a trip! Here's a photo he took from the summit of Gokyo Ri, 17,575 ft. That be Everest! In the back. Middle left.

I received my 23rd epidural this past Monday, 10/29/18.
Relief is sweet.
Below is my trail guide for this round, #23.
October 29, 2018 thru January 21, 2019
I am committed to selfcare & emotional wellness.
With selfcare I am caring for others.
I do not have to explain to anyone my lack of commitment to activities outside of selfcare. Even if I weren't disabled, there is no need to explain or apologize to anyone, though I'm sure I will.
Remind myself, "Easy. Easy." Listen to my body & soul.
Lower expectations to regulate frustrations.
Weather is always changing, "It's wind, man. It blows all over the place."
May I be present.
May I have ease of well being.
May I be peaceful.
May I embrace 10,000 sorrows & 10,000 joys.
The good, the bad, & the ugly - we all share the same air, water, & soil.
My experiences & knowledge count.
I have intrinsic value.
Countdown:
Week 1: Completed M, 11/05/18: easy does it
Week 2: Completed M, 11/12/18
Week 3: Completed M, 11/19/18
Week 9: Completed Tu, 01/01/19: easy does it
Week 12: Completed M, 01/21/19: easy X4 does it

The Lion King is one of my favorite Disney movies.
I relate to this clip.
