Slow Progress on All Fronts

OK the additions of pages is going slowly. Linking to relevant things slower. Work is tiring and I'm slowing down for the weekend. Next week will see a dentist appointment and cooking for Thanksgiving. A simple meal is what it will be. Chicken and dumplings with dressing. That's what I want, with red velvet cake for dessert.

I am bored out of my mind every time I try to work. I recently went from Chrome to Firefox. Chrome started acting up, freezing up and not displaying pages properly. This means that I get to start over on my second book, it was in an application for Chrome. Oh well, that's life I have it in my head. Sort of.

I still have to create the page for my favorite sites and for the different things here, like fiction. Finding all the posts to put on a single page to make navigation easier is probably something that I should have done long ago, but well I love to put things off until I can't stand it anymore.

My most consistent act these days is taking a break every Friday to read Friday Follies. (The link will open in a new window.) Working during the hours that the kid is at school and trying to clean the house at the same time is difficult. Of course the fact that my kid's father would require being told what to do to do it most days is a bit annoying but in his mind he is helpful.

Well, I sense a rant coming on so I'll be going 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!
