When they reach their hotel in Las Vegas, both are more excited than two kids on their first trip to Disneyland. But a few hours later their excitement is over-shadowed by Eric's strange and unexpected behavior. Crystal is use to Eric's sometimes funny sometimes crazy antics but this newest episode both angers and alarms her. After returning home to prepare for their next venture, a seven day cruise, Crystal and Eric keep a scheduled appointment with their doctor. Crystal decides to put the episode in Vegas behind them and does not mention it to Dr. Winters. Their cruise proves to be more exciting than they ever dreamed and the two emerge happier and more in love than ever. When they return, Crystal is not prepared for Dr. Winters' diagnosis; Eric has dementia. Crystal refuses to believe that all the years they've spent loving each other and raising their four children will soon be erased from Eric's memory causing their lives to change forever. Crystal goes from a state of frustration and denial to understanding and acceptance. With the help of her children, her best friend Sherry and her next door neighbor Dorothy, Crystal learns to laugh in spite of her tears.

The Sharper Your Knife, the Less You Cry by Kathleen Flinn Pdf

"...engaging, intelligent, and surprisingly suspenseful." —Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love The unforgettable New York Times best-selling journey of self-discovery and finding one's true calling in life Kathleen Flinn was a thirty-six-year-old middle manager trapped on the corporate ladder - until her boss eliminated her job. Instead of sulking, she took the opportunity to check out of the rat race for good - cashing in her savings, moving to Paris, and landing a spot at the venerable Le Cordon Blue cooking school. The Sharper Your Knife, the Less You Cry is the funny and inspiring account of her struggle in a stew of hot-tempered, chefs, competitive classmates, her own "wretchedly inadequate" French - and how she mastered the basics of French cuisine. Filled with rich, sensual details of her time in the kitchen - the ingredients, cooking techniques, wine, and more than two dozen recipes - and the vibrant sights and sounds of the markets, shops, and avenues of Paris, it is also a journey of self-discovery, transformation, and, ultimately, love.

Greek Laughter and Tears by Margaret Alexiou Pdf

Explores the range and complexity of human emotions and their transmission across cultural traditionsWhat makes us laugh and cry, sometimes at the same time? How do these two primal, seemingly discrete and non-verbal modes of expression intersect in everyday life and ritual, and what range of emotions do they evoke? How may they be voiced, shaped and coloured in literature and liturgy, art and music?Bringing together scholars from diverse periods and disciplines of Hellenic and Byzantine studies, this volume explores the shifting shapes and functions of laughter and tears. With a focus on the tragic, the comic and the tragicomic dimensions of laughter and tears in art, literature and performance, as well as on their emotional, socio-cultural and religious significance, it breaks new ground in the study of ancient and Byzantine affectivity.Key featuresIncludes an international cast of 25 distinguished contributors Prominence is given to performative arts and to interactions with other cultures Transitions from Late Antiquity to Byzantium, and from Byzantium to the Renaissance, form focal points from which contributors look backwards, forwards and sidewaysHighlights the variety, audacity and quality of the finest Byzantine works and the extent to which they anticipated the renaissance

A Concordance to the Poems of W.B. Yeats by Stephen Maxfield Parrish Pdf

Now it is possible for the first time to trace in a systematic way the language patterns of one of the greatest poets who have written in English, W. B. Yeats. Like A Concordance to the Poems of Matthew Arnold, the first of the Cornell Concordances that are under the general editorship of Professor Parrish, this volume was produced on an IBM 704 electronic data-processing machine. Computer technique has so advanced that the Yeats concordance includes punctuation and gives cross references for the second parts of hyphenated words. The frequency of every word in Yeats's poems is given, and an appendix lists all indexed words in order of frequency. The body of this book consists of an index of all significant words in Yeats, each word listed in the line or lines in which it occurs. The concordance is based on the variorum text of Yeats, edited by Alspach and Allt, and includes all variants that occur in printed versions of Yeats's poems.
