All About Hew
Oh boy! Going tonight to hear our poet-friends Dale Jensen and Judy Wells read in celebration of their 10th wedding anniversary at the Frank Bette Center for the Arts tonight in Alameda. Jeanne Lupton will host. Can't wait! My husband Hew Wolff and I will read at the open mic -- I wrote a special tribute poem for Dale and Judy. 7 PM.
Hew's out hanging paintings. Wanted to invite anyone in the SF Bay Area to his reading Monday, May 14 at Poetry Express at Priya Indian Restaurant on San Pablo Ave. in Berkeley, California. It's hosted by Jim Barnard, Nance Wogan, Jan Dederick and Odilia Galván Rodriguez. There's an open mic, and poetry fans get 20% off their delicious Indian Food. 7 PM - 9 PM. Hew's formal poetry is lilting, clever, conversational and lovely.
Right now Hew's hanging a painting in the Pro Arts Gallery at Frank Ogawa Plaza in Oakland, California. We'll attend the free reception there at 7 PM on Friday, May 4.
On Saturday and Sunday, June 9 & 10, from 10 AM to 5 PM each day, we'll be having an open studio in the back yard. We'll hang Hew's paintings all along the fence, serve snacks and drinks, and hang out with anyone who shows up. I'll get the details up on Facebook soon, or, if you aren't on Facebook but want to come, just message me on Goodreads or email me at jmsteckel at aol dot com for details.
Happy end of National Poetry Month!

Thanks, Ginny. So glad you're doing well. No more spells? Hew and I are having a pretty good time with his art and our writing. :) I'm looking forward to seeing you at the end of July!
My memory has remained intact! I had a similar event about 20 years ago for no known reason. I should have a CT scan though although I'll lose my driver's license if it's positive for TIA. Bummer! I'm working up my nerve ... I have had headaches. I don't want you to feel responible for my "condition," so just let me work up my nerve and do the obvious - have a CT scan, which my internist wants me to have anywho. Ya' never know! :)
Okey-doke! I don't think you'll lose your license. Better to get it over with. :)
I'm going into Pueblo Radiology (where I used to type reports many moons ago) tomorrow after my pelvic! I've been in denial, but my headache is knocking some sense into me. My doctor asked me if I'd blacked out; I said no; he told me I wouldn't lost my license if I'd said yes. I'd be a liability on the road. Oy veh!
Oy veh, indeed. Well, best of luck with the CT, which should take very little time and will probably be totally normal. Still worth doing, though, just to be sure. Big hug!!!xoxox,
Jan
I'm going to get into Pueblo Radiology tomorrow if possible. I used to type their reports!
