Day 18: A Problem I have Had

Today is all about problems, grab a chair and a drink. It's time for a bitchfest.

What problem haven't I had? Terminal illness. That is a plus.

The biggest problem I have had? Interfering in-laws. They butted in so often, and so far over their boundaries that they have been banned. No I will not reconsider, there is far more to it, and it is not an offense(s) that warrant the consideration of forgiveness. 

A bad marriage, or two. This was the result of not listening to that voice in your head that tells you someone is not worth your time. Oops. I'm getting better at listening to it.

Living in an area that is about 100 years (at least) behind the current century is another problem. It is difficult to live in an area that refuses to accept your beliefs and forces thiers down your throat.

Well, end of rant. What problems have you had? I'm off.

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!
