The Ink-Pot and the Palette

I've had trouble reading the last two or three years. Part of it is vision. Donald has been pestering me to get a e-reader of some sort. That is so hard to contemplate. Reasons include failing vision, but mostly stress. The last couple of years have been extremely stressful with, let me see: at a minimum 6 of the major stressors in life all in one year. My mind just didn't have room for more imput, it was busy hashing out everything that was already there and just keeping going.
Recently I've read, and enjoyed several books, which is certainly progress!
