February 13, 2024 – A – Jim Dollar's Photography and Philosophy

**Lone Loon 10/01/2010 — Edgar M. Tennis Preserve, Deer Isle, Maine**

After 24 hours with the Norovirus, I have some tips
that may prove to be useful for you or someone you know:

1) Feeling better does not mean getting better.
2) If you think it's a fart get to a toilet NOW!
3) Consider making your acquaintance with Depends
and 33 gal leaf-disposal bags.
4) Re-consider what "Making the best of it" means.
5) Laugh out loud when the thought crosses your mind:
"Surely, the worst is over now!"
6) Make certain your sense of humor is the last thing 
that goes. If you don't have a sense of humor, spend
what remains of your time left for living developing one.
You could start with the George Carlin YouTube videos.

I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
