However, I can't find a balance between playing games and reviewing them (when not assigned by a client) and reading. Carla, that’s exactly how I felt when I finally broke my reading cycle.

He made the most of it by relying on another ability and strengthening that. So few people do that especially seniors. Thanks for sharing your beautiful memory, Liara.

Before he passed over, he went through stages of progressive blindness. Before that, he had been an avid reader. INitially, he was angry and disappointed he could no longer enjoy books as he had done. His deteriorating eyesight prompted him to shift focus to enjoying music and listening to sports broadcasts from the television. Although he was slowly finding it difficult to watch, he managed to find joy in heightening other sensory perception. In this way, he inspires others to make the best of where they are and focus on the good. <abbr><em>Liara Covert´s last blog post... <a href="http://blog.dreambuilders.com.au/journal/2009/2/25/10-ways-to-take-charge-of-your-life.html" rel="nofollow">10 ways to take charge of your life</a></abbr></em> Your post offered insight into my maternal grandfather’s plight.

That must have been so frustrating for you. I'm glad you're back at it. I LOVE the book Jonathon Livingston Seagull. My grandmother knew the story, but her eyes were too bad to read anymore, so I recorded the whole thing for her on one of those old cassette players. It felt wonderful to be able to do that for her. <abbr><em>Davina´s last blog post... <a href="http://www.shadesofcrimson.com/2009/02/22/morning-muse-morning-pages-inspiration-poetry/" rel="nofollow">The Morning Muse — Inspiring Hands</a></abbr></em> Hi Meryl.

Wish I could do more of these -- but blog gets lower priority while client stuff gets higher priority. Well, buying a Kindle for recovery would be a little much. I still like the real thing! :) Thank you, George. Wish I could do more of these — but blog gets lower priority while client stuff gets higher priority.

It's personal and real, and frankly there's just not too much of that out there these days. I'm going to seek out Wishful Drinking to have a peek. Some marriages find that the addition of a toy into the bedroom can help matters - I was thinking a Kindle may help given the hand injury thing. Cheers!
