Rated: 13+ · Book · Personal · #1311011
A terminal for all blogs coming in or going out. A view into my life.
Started July 1st 2019 for contests, etc. as other blogs are filling up and have other purposes.

Ferry boat between Solvorn and Ornes across the Lustrafjord i Sogn og Fjordane.




I'm starting a new blog because
BOOK
L'aura del Campo  (13+)
Online journal capturing the moment and the memory of moments. A meadow meditation.
#982524 by Kåre Enga in Montana
had over 1,200 entries and that was getting close to full. I don't want to trim it by deletion. I did that once, much to my dismay. Will be used more for poetry.

BOOK
Hoarfrosts from Hell  (GC)
Anything I'm not happy about or that I don't want in my main blog!
#997339 by Kåre Enga in Montana
is still hidden from the public and will remain so. It's more personal and full of angst. Was used for 30DBC for May 2020 and now used for Blogville.

BOOK
Enga mellom fjella  (13+)
Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.
#1317094 by Kåre Enga in Montana
was full... until the number of entries was increased. A mixed blog, mostly stories.

I'll be linking to

BOOK
O Pinions!  (XGC)
May my opinions gather wind under their wings and fly, perchance to soar.

is for my opinions. *Laugh*

BOOK
Nurture your Nature  (13+)
Look around. Let Nature nurture your Soul. I record images I sense and share them here.
#1439094 by Kåre Enga in Montana
was set up for nature observations and musings.

 
BOOK
Watt's Gnus  (18+)
On topics and today's gnus. Definitely opinionated. Set to 18+ for a reason.
#1439092 by Kåre Enga in Montana
come out of a need to share interesting stuff I come across. When I was young I did a small newsletter named as such. (or was it column in the newsletter? Been 30 years... I think.)

 
FOLDER
Flash Fiction  (GC)
Short 300 word, more or less, "stories" .
#2190336 by Kåre Enga in Montana
is where I put my flash fictions. Maybe someday I'll figure it out and have enough good ones to publish. Ratings vary and some are hidden from view.

I've started an appendix (I no longer have one personally) to keep track of my Space Cadet journals for Space Blog. It's a work constantly under construction. Mind the mess.
STATIC
Space Cadet - the never ending journal  (18+)
Journeys of an Alien Space crew.
#2226611 by Kåre Enga in Montana


I needed to start a folder for contests as there are so many deadlines and details to remember.
 
FOLDER

A place to keep track of in progress works and up-coming deadlines as well as any awards.

(also very messy!) *Shock2*

Where bloggers meet and greet to read and share. No required prompt. Alias: blogville.
#2253938 by Kåre Enga in Montana
is for posting personal blog entries in hope that folks will comment and post their blog entries there as well. I will be commenting on all blog entries posted. It's my effort to rebuild a blogging community.

Left-overs piled on hot rice and mixed.

04:20 and nightmares... I'm not doing well since I came back to Montana

10 years from now two young boys will meet on a frozen playground in Scotland/Siberia/Sapporo and they will introduce themselves as Lionel and Kylian. Today will be on their mind. Will they share dreams of playing for their national team or will their dreams lie elsewhere?

Can you write their story?

Today, December 18, 2022, Argentina and Messi defeated France and Mbappe for the World Cup.


Remember ask to about sepak takraw.

17.desember

Went to Butterfly Herbs. Had a cardamom-tangerine milkshake. Saw Lundy, Cathy Mae. Coughed all the way home (I suspect due to the cold air). Now snug in bed and fine. It's 18:48 and I'm bored.

To Elycia: I guess the question is whether you live in a community where people look after each other or whether you're a self-centered individualist. Americans take pride in their perceived superiority as individualists. Case in point.

Cultures vary... so do expectations. These days many people use cafes as their personal work office. Same in hostels. Also... in some cultures folks REALLY don't like being talked to; it's considered rude. I will adjust in Thailand... but... my own attitude gets in the way. If a person is in public they needn't assume a prickly My-Privacy aggressive posture of entitlement. If a person needs privacy... get your own room/office/whatever and spare the rest of us. Among travelers, common in hostels, there's a sense of looking out for each other (as a temporary family). From my perspective the author is overly sensitive.

To Mary: I'm going back to Thailand to a future I cannot predict but one I need to practice saying yes to.

Lunch: fish.

15.desember

Made rice with pork (onion, garlic, peanut-butter, butter, basil).

*Snow3* Cold.

I think Ponnya is suffering from separation anxiety. *Care*

To Lilli: Conjugate 'sick'.

Everyone here is sick, has been sick or will be sick. It's tense.

Personally... got to grocery store, bought bread, other stuff. Cold walk probably didn't help my lingering cough. I'm okay, just okay.

14.desember

Phil had extra muffins yesterday. Today's breakfast: coffee and a muffin.

To Ponnya:

หิมะ หิมะ หิมะ

โลกเป็นสีขาว

เงียบ เงียบ เงียบ

โลกนี้ช่างเงียบสงบ

จุ๊จุ๊จุ๊

รักคุณ

I was very sick when I got back from Thailand. Couldn't get warm, couldn't stay warm. It's taking over one week to feel 'normal'... just don't ask about sleep or whether I'm getting anything done.

I am supposed to be downsizing here. Anyone want books? I am returning to Thailand shortly. I feel physically and emotionally better there.

13.desember

Thailand return is booked. I did manage to get to God's Waiting Room. Saw friends, ate. Home = nap.

12.desember

5 in the morning — my body aches; I can't sleep; I decide on coffee and toast. At 5 am it's 7 pm in Thailand. Ponnya has been lonely. I've been sick... and lonely too.

An article that makes a couple valid points but devalues the human right to choose a faith:
