Sunday Already?

Well, it's hard to believe but it is in fact Sunday once again. This year is beginning to go by rather quickly and I'm not so sure I like it. I'd love to be able to go ahead and file my taxes but other than that I'm not really in a hurry this year. I've managed to do a lot of nothing since the new year began. Oh well, it's fine I'm not in a big hurry to make sure the house is sterile or anything.

I did manage to figure out what sites I would be writing for this year. That took a bit of pressure off after the December changes to a site that I spent a lot of time writing for when I didn't have private clients and since I gave them up. I finally found a way not to give up clients all together while ensuring that I don't end up stuck with the same type of work to do repeatedly! I was rather happy about that.

I have found that I prefer to make my own laundry soap and I even managed to find all the ingredients. The main problem is that I have to go to three different stores to get everything. Well, two if I change the type of soap that I use for it. There isn't that much time involved in making it either. The longest part is having it on the stove but fortunately someone finally put out a recipe for a gallon!

I also decided to dedicate a few seconds each day in order to ensue I have swagbucks each day. I used to get $5 paypal deposits from them but I decided it was more beneficial to use them toward Amazon gift cards. I see a lot of things there that I want and need which are difficult to find in stores. OK I'll be going for now.

C is for Calm

It's been so long that I'm not sure what it is anymore but I think I'm beginning to find calm. It is the feeling that allows you to find contentment in the smallest things. It does not have to be something major, it can be something as simple as a gentle breeze. There are a number of things that have a calming effect; I look forward to being able to do them. What are they? I'll tell you in no particular order. Walking on the beach. Drinking a beer by a bonfire. Sitting in front of a fireplace. Reading a book. Spending time alone just thinking or writing just to write. Calm is a nice feeling, and one that has been missed the last few years. Slowly it is returning that is why C is for calm.

Flash in the Pan Playing Along Still

The pages were bent and ragged from years of use, covers worn out from hands rubbing over them. There were bowls everywhere, the oven was still hot. She tasted it again, something wasn’t right. It was sweet, tangy but not right. What was missing? She scanned the room again to see. Onions maybe? No, but what could it be? She hit her head on the cabinet. A pepper that was it!
