Mark’s Notes On The Go

Mighty Oaks From Little Acorns Grow

I’m cautiously optimistic about my knee. In the last week, I finally experienced some improvement again. When I first started physical therapy, there was definite improvement. I went from struggling up the stairs to dull yet constant pain. It was better than before, but better is still not well. The stall has lasted quite awhile, but last week, we changed up the exercises and started doing electro stimulation on my knee. Don’t know if it’s one or both of those or it was just time, but I found myself feeling better last week and that’s worth celebrating. Fingers crossed I’m finally on the way to being over this. My only outstanding question when I go back to the orthopedist in a few weeks for my check up is about the knee and how long we’re talking before something has to be done for that… I was too disappointed at not getting a definite answer about my problems to ask.

On less depressing sides of this thing we call life, I’m showing one of my photos as part of the Castleberry Hill art stroll next month, as part of Atlanta’s Urban Photography group.

Atlanta Icon II

The show is on July 20th, and the framed print will be available for sale. And a little bit of exposure and all that.

I’ll likely also submitting to the juried exhibition, Slow Exposures, I mentioned in my last post. I need to work on that one night this week. I’ve got a couple of definite choices for my four photos and a couple more to choose from. It’s not too late to help me out and choose your top four.

This is one among a group of photos that I’m considering entering in an show called Slow Exposures, which is for photos of the rural south.

Here are the contenders.

Thanks all!

So, after days of thinking about it I put down my $99 and registered for a SMART. I loved them in Europe and they are coming to America in ‘08!

So much for that happy place of no car payments. ;-)

The one above is the configuration I want, color-wise, and yes, the cabriolet model - after year’s of swearing against a convertible

No News is….

Not sure where the “no news is good news” thing comes from.  I guess it has it’s good points, but as the continuing knee saga unfolds… I’m not sure I agree…

After weeks of physical therapy, I went back to the orthopedist last week.  I had improvement in physical therapy, but (more…)
