Two woman, Anita Holzberg and Ann Wainwright met over the internet with Bill Costley,
their common friend, whose wife Carolin had been Ann's good friend. Starting in
June '09, Anita sent a Cupcake poem to Ann's website cakecakecake, after seeing
the photo of cupcakes. The poem was about her grandson's first birthday party. Ann
liked that and it was the start of a wonderful exchange of poems from Anita to Ann and
Ann with color, photos, and lay-out savvy, presented them to the blog. Now, in 2010,
the two women so alike in spirit and interests, have started BetweenFriends, a new blog
site where they can combine ideas about their worlds. Ann lives in Northern UK
(Teesside). Anita lives in Northern California, Sunnyvale, (Silicon Valley where all the
computers are.) We share our lives on this blog and hope you will comment and share
yours too, dear readers and enjoy the "ride".

Surgery in 7 Weeks - Anita Holzberg

Surely
  the sure-footed will run
        down hills
             climb up mountain paths
                   hike the terrain


  I never did any of that


All I want is
       to walk my neighborhood
       
                         I get my
knee replacement surgery date


I know not what it will translate to


I do know I will walk again.


Now, I must train for it
     walk in water, ride the bike


Can I lose 5 lbs in less than 7 weeks


I think  "Yes"


My instinct is success.
