A terminal for all blogs coming in or going out. A view into my life.

I'm starting a new blog because

BOOK
Enga mellom fjella  (13+)
Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

FOLDER

Short 300 word, more or less, "stories" .
#2190336 by Kåre Enga in Montana

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.

Over 50 of this trinket collected. I can assure you that I haven't received 50 blog comments this month. Chris Breva has been checking in though... thank-you.



I may not do the prompts today. I need to go grocery shopping. It's sunny at the moment and 'warming up'. I'm slowly going through my stash of canned soup and pasta. I have plenty of food. It's perishables I lack. When one lives alone they go bad if one miscalculates. I've had to throw stuff out and my past poverty doesn't approve of that. I may make a tuna melt later today. I made the mistake of opening up a big can yesterday and must use it up.

I'm trying to go out every day. Not happening but it's a good idea. I'm normally sluggish in December unless I'm traveling. I usually brighten up late January. I should write those postcards I've been promising to write. And later need to work on some writing I started for various contests that I never finished.

And... I need to get back to reading "Autumn Letters" by Michael Frederick. It's placed in Nebraska farm country, a landscape and humanscape I'm familiar with. It will be my first book of "52 in 52 (you can still sign up). I have made a stack of other books to read. The contest has prompts and I'll do my best but I don't feel obligated. When I travel later in the year I'll have to figure out how to carry cheap dime pulp-fiction paperbacks that weigh nothing or do kindle or something similar. I have hundreds of used books at home. I'm a 'rabbit'. I binge or not. Many people here are 'tortoises' in the sense that their lives have a daily rhythm of routines and obligations. I don't. It's very stressful for me to be that scheduled.

So I sit here with the weak sun on my bareback. *Laugh* I'll need to layer when I go out. It'll be about 45F which is mild for here. I look forward to the six block walk. I may even get to talk to someone! Yesterday I knocked on Bri's door just to tell her I'm okay. If I see anyone I can wait until tomorrow or Friday to say hello to other friends. At some point I need to check my post office box but I really don't like walking the bridge crossing the river.

I mailed postcards to Fivesixer , queenkissy and ~Minja~ . Wonder when they'll be received. Mail has had international and national issues during this Season of Covid.

Cooking up chicken. Easier to store cooked than bloody. Sorry Bunny, Bawang, Clovia... *Vamp*.
