Interesting Figures

OK not so interesting but I'm going to tell you about them anyway. I figured out that so far I have just over $73 in payouts coming for February from writing sites. I have almost $500 going out in February that doesn't include supplements or gasoline. I put $20 of gasoline in the truck today and got a little over half a tank that brought it up to just over 3/4 of a tank. I was fortunate enough to pay $2.99 a gallon instead of $3.05 a gallon. I've got to top that tank off as soon as possible and keep it from getting below 3/4 again. I'll have $3.59 left after my gas purchase goes through. One of my phone bills was just paid automatically it would seem, that still leaves the $3.59.

I'll be glad when my 1099 gets here. Then I'll know what I'm going to have to go through and figure out by hand in order to file my taxes this year. Actually, that seems like something I should be doing right now. I don't want to have to print out all those reports but it looks like I'm going to have to start or stick to places that send the 1099 so I have it all in one place.

OK I'm going.

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!
