Thinking is Dangerous

I've been thinking a lot lately and that's a rather dangerous thing. I think that I want a larger computer screen, and a desktop computer. I think that I want a brand new laptop or a new battery and an upgrade for this one. I want more portable storage devices, I want to be able to print out the pictures that I want to print out anytime I want and get it right the first time. Most of all I want people to pay attention so I don't have to keep repeating myself.

I want to be comfortable. I also want to stop being so dependent on the power company. The biggest problem is that I can't afford any of those neat little solar items. Well, maybe a solar shower but I'd still have to have power to get running water. I have a private well, the pump doesn't work without water. I don't use a clothes dryer, it doesn't work at the moment and it took so long when it did that it was faster to hang the clothes out. I used to use both back when the light bill was still just over $100 if I used it everyday of the week. I also used it a very long time ago when the light bill came directly out of my boyfriends paycheck. That and if everything wasn't just so when he got home he went into a rage; although he seemed to have something against literate people believing books were a waste of time.



I have been doing more laundry by hand unless it's something that I need to make sure has been sterilized. I'm trying to potty train my toddler and I believe that cloth does the job faster than the disposable items do. I still don't like cleaning them but days like today it's worth it. Theresa got up before 8a.m. and at 10a.m. she was still dry! I'm so proud of her. I just wish I could find the chart that helps her to know the steps.

Ok that's as far as my thoughts are rambling today. I either need to go read some of my book or find an item to review.

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.
