Feeling really chemo’ed-up today. Yuck. Blech. It’s GOT to
be working...
London was gorgeous and sunny, and although inside, I sat in
the sun and watched it set. I listened to The “Adult Alternative Pop Mix” on
the Genius setting on my iTunes today. Just let the computer decide what I
should listen to. It ended up being a lot of Ben Harper, John Mayer, and Joni
Mitchell. Then I switched to the
Classic Rock Mix and noticed how many Brits helped make me feel better today:
Mick Jagger, Graham Nash, George Harrison, Peter Frampton, Terry Reid, Rod Stewart, Seal, The Who,
Tom Petty, Joan Armatrading, Isn’t it crazy? And the list could go
on…
They take very good care of me here. And one of my favorite
nurses, Emma, is mine today. You
know the song, “Close to
You”? (Burt Bacharach.
A GREAT American musician!) That
was written for her. She’s an Irish angel. Very Cool and giggly. Turned me onto Bon Iver and I turned
her on to Ben Harper today. So that was productive…. I’m making her a wrap bracelet. She picked her colors: these
sort of multi ocean colored Czech glass beads and black leather. It’ll look good on her pale, pale
wrist. And for me, I’m turning making bracelets into a meditation at the urging of my friend Amal; every
bead a prayer, or a clearing. One
bead at a time Dina. One Bead at a time.
