Rambling Thoughts

The title says it all; these thoughts will ramble with no real point in sight until I stumble upon one. I have been looking at rental property for a few years now. My current expenses are down, but they unfortunatly are not down enough to cover the rent of $350 a month which I have to be average for the needs that I have. I have been going over the expenses for 2013 and so far January sees my expenses at less than $500 for the month without items such as supplements, food and gasoline.

I would wondering just how high my income will have to get in order to stop worrying. The income will need to be consistant in order to stop the panic sessions. The expenses would be well over $500 a month with rent included. I cannot remember the last time I had to pay rent, this is going to be an interesting transition. Most interesting of all will be the continued struggles to get everyone on board with the reality that having money in the pocket does not mean there is money to spend.

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!
