Working on playing catch up. My internet was not letting me upload yesterday. Hopefully all is caught up and will be normal moving forward.

Thank you very much for all of the well wishes. My eye is progressing nicely.

Whatsoever is Lovely Challenge-2026 Week 16-Delayed

I am recovering from eye surgery and cannot work on the computer for long enough to do the post. I will catch up as soon as I can.

I will say that it was lovely having a surgeon with steady hands and excellent communication skill at a stressful time.

I will post once a week, Sunday at noon in Seattle (8pm GMT) is my goal, and put a list of posts from the previous week in it. Basically using the same method I do with the Pull up a Seat Challenge. Detailed instructions are on the page: Whatsoever is lovely blog challenge.

Background

We live in a world that seems to value drama, anger, fear and violence. Being mean often passes for being smart. These are the things that “go viral”, magnified in the media. Sometimes, the things that really make life worth living are small and simple. They don’t make for good TikTok. This is a chance to share that type of moment from our lives.
