Sluggish

OK it's growing colder and all I want to do is hibernate. I've spent more time making lists than completing them. I am exhausted soon after I wake up, eating makes me tired and I have to buy the dog a leash that he cannot chew. I also have to build him a small dog house to keep the weather off him, and put a stake in the ground to tie him to when we leave the house together so that he will not chase cars. It's easier than putting up a fence, although I would love that.

I want to stay in bed all day long, but of course I have to earn a living. The recent change in web browsers caused me to lose all the progress on two books.  I would still be putting together a professional about me. It's difficult not to ramble and to stick to the point. I can restart my books, and come up with concrete titles. It's a bit annoying that both of them are lost for the moment, but I will starting them over once I go back and outline the points I intended to make.

OK I'm exhausted, and I have work to do. Both paying and non-paying.

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!
