it's been so long since I posted, but last week I had a nasty reaction to some codeine I'd been prescribed and ended up flat out for about 24 hours and I wasn't up to much the next day either! My new rule...no more codeine, not even half a dose!
In between the nastiness, I've been working on a new class for our Surviving to Thriving group, enjoying the sunny afternoons on the porch (even a few handfulls of berries we managed to keep the deer away from!) and a senior recital done by the son of some friends, who is an awesome pianist for a young man just 18 years old! He played a piece by Chopin that had everyone riveted in their seats...awesome! The concert was being filmed by a local television station, which is why you see the videographer standing behind him.
Since I don't have any progress photos on my work, I thought I'd just add another shot of a veiw from yaquina head, where I often sit. It's the same place I took the surfer photo from but looking in another direction.

So glad you are better now. Medication can be good, but it can also knock you for a loop. Take care.
I used to take codeine for cramps. Have taken Vicodin to. I think I am immune to their back effects. I am glad you feel better and hope they determine a better med for you for pain.
Wow, your son is a pianist!! I ALWAYS admire anyone that can plan an instrument. I am so NOT musically inclined!! Can't carry a tune either!!
What a wonderful view you have of the ocean. My grandkids went to Florida last week and got to see the Atlantic. They stayed 3 day in Cocoa Beach and two in Gatinburg TN. They had a great time and brought me back a bottle of ocean water to taste! Yuck. They are so much fun.
Have a great day and glad you feel better.

thanks, arline!
hi carol...the wonderful pianist is not my son, but the son of old friends...I'm also unable to play any instrument and wish I could, so watching this young man play so well looked kinda like magic to me, lol!
Whew! Glad you're over the codeine ordeal. The concert sounds wonderful, always a special treat when you know the performer.
Wow Bobbi so glad you are OK. That codine can be a real bad drug. I am home now and will be in Newport one day next week. I will let you know. Hey are you going to the Rock and Gem show in Reedsport this weekend?
Hope you are well
